THE SCHOOL HOUSE 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 two THE SCHOOL HOUSE sales from December 2012 and March 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 December 2012 sale was for 7% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 7% above the HPI over time, until the March 2024 sale, where it falls to 43% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 43% below the HPI.
