WALFORDS 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 WALFORDS sales from May 2019 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 May 2019 sale was for 50% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 50% below the HPI over time, until the March 2021 sale, where it rises to 24% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 24% below the HPI.
