52 CLAY PITS Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Braintree local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 52 CLAY PITS sales between October 2001 and December 2022 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 January 2007 sale was for 38% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 38% below the HPI over time, until the December 2022 sale, where it rises to 36% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 36% below the HPI.
