7 FORDS LANE 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 three 7 FORDS LANE sales between February 1997 and April 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 November 2017 sale was for 14% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 14% below the HPI over time, until the April 2021 sale, where it rises to 5% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 5% below the HPI.
