MILL RETREAT 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 three MILL RETREAT sales between May 2007 and March 2021 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 2015 sale was for 31% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 31% above the HPI over time, until the March 2021 sale, where it falls to 23% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 23% above the HPI.
