LONGMEADS Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Brentwood local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three LONGMEADS sales between December 2002 and April 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 October 2009 sale was for 131% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 131% above the HPI over time, until the April 2018 sale, where it falls to 85% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 85% above the HPI.
