MEHALAH Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Rochford local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two MEHALAH sales from August 2012 and February 2024 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 August 2012 sale was for 25% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 25% below the HPI over time, until the February 2024 sale, where it rises to 21% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 21% below the HPI.
