6B READ CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Rochford local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 6B READ CLOSE sales between August 1996 and May 2021 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 2006 sale was for 41% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 41% above the HPI over time, until the May 2021 sale, where it falls to 16% above the HPI.
