4 MELROSE ROAD 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 two 4 MELROSE ROAD sales from October 2014 and August 2018 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 October 2014 sale was for 26% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 26% below the HPI over time, until the August 2018 sale, which was also at 26% below the HPI.
