MOORLYNCH Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Colchester local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two MOORLYNCH sales from December 2006 and August 2011 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 2006 sale was for 28% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 28% below the HPI over time, until the August 2011 sale, where it rises to 12% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 12% below the HPI.
