12 MERLIN END 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 12 MERLIN END sales between October 1996 and October 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 March 2009 sale was for 1% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 1% above the HPI over time, until the October 2014 sale, where it falls to 2% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 2% below the HPI.
