BROMPTONS COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Braintree local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two BROMPTONS COTTAGE sales from July 2010 and September 2017 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 July 2010 sale was for 124% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 124% above the HPI over time, until the September 2017 sale, where it falls to 65% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 65% above the HPI.
