The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Colchester local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The six DELFT COTTAGE sales between September 2001 and April 2022 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 December 2016 sale was for 17% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 17% below the HPI over time, until the April 2022 sale, where it falls to 25% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 25% below the HPI.
