15 JAMES CLOSE 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 15 JAMES CLOSE sales from June 1995 and September 2005 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 June 1995 sale was for 6% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 6% below the HPI over time, until the September 2005 sale, where it falls to 15% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 15% below the HPI.

What might 15 JAMES CLOSE be worth now?
