The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Braintree local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The five 20 ROCHESTER CLOSE sales between February 1999 and December 2023 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 2021 sale was for 3% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 3% below the HPI over time, until the December 2023 sale, where it falls to 18% below the HPI.
