8 MELROSE ROAD 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 four 8 MELROSE ROAD sales between November 1995 and July 2015 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 December 2000 sale was for 48% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 48% below the HPI over time, until the July 2015 sale, where it rises to 43% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 43% below the HPI.
