The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Colchester local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 40 ORWELL CLOSE sales between October 1995 and May 2017 have been plotted on the graph.

For example, the March 1997 sale was for 49% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 49% below the HPI over time, until the May 2017 sale, where it rises to 32% below the HPI.
