WEST GATE COTTAGE 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 WEST GATE COTTAGE sales from October 1995 and November 2014 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 October 1995 sale was for 85% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 85% above the HPI over time, until the November 2014 sale, where it falls to 78% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 78% above the HPI.
