105 FOREST ROAD Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average terraced house price in the Colchester local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 105 FOREST ROAD sales from September 1996 and October 1997 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 1996 sale was for 30% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 30% below the HPI over time, until the October 1997 sale, where it rises to 16% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 16% below the HPI.
