7 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 two 7 READ CLOSE sales from July 1995 and May 2013 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 July 1995 sale was for 95% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 95% above the HPI over time, until the May 2013 sale, where it falls to 13% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 13% above the HPI.
