8 ORCHARD CLOSE 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 ORCHARD CLOSE sales between December 1996 and December 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 September 2001 sale was for 38% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 38% above the HPI over time, until the December 2015 sale, where it falls to 34% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 34% above the HPI.
