THE GROOMS 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 THE GROOMS sales from September 2005 and August 2009 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 2005 sale was for 32% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 32% above the HPI over time, until the August 2009 sale, where it rises to 59% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 59% above the HPI.
