7 MERLIN END 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 7 MERLIN END sales from March 2007 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 March 2007 sale was for 9% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 9% above the HPI over time, until the May 2021 sale, where it falls to 9% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 9% below the HPI.
