THE WILLOW GROVE 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 WILLOW GROVE sales from May 2006 and December 2020 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 May 2006 sale was for 66% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 66% above the HPI over time, until the December 2020 sale, where it falls to 30% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 30% above the HPI.
