BLACKWATER HOUSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Colchester local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two BLACKWATER HOUSE sales from June 2001 and October 2008 have been plotted on the graph. A line has been extrapolated to show what the value of the property might have been over time, following each sale, had it maintained the same margin above or below the HPI (as a percentage). For example, the June 2001 sale was for 76% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 76% above the HPI over time, until the October 2008 sale, where it falls to 58% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 58% above the HPI.
