The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Colchester local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 179 MERSEA ROAD sales between September 1999 and February 2002 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 July 2000 sale was for 45% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 45% below the HPI over time, until the February 2002 sale, where it rises to 43% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 43% below the HPI.
