HILLTOP HOUSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Chelmsford local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two HILLTOP HOUSE sales from September 1996 and December 2018 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 September 1996 sale was for 285% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 285% above the HPI over time, until the December 2018 sale, where it falls to 130% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 130% above the HPI.
