1 SORREL CLOSE 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 four 1 SORREL CLOSE sales between December 1997 and August 2012 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 2007 sale was for 12% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 12% above the HPI over time, until the August 2012 sale, where it rises to 27% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 27% above the HPI.
