8 RUSHMERE 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 two 8 RUSHMERE CLOSE sales from July 2000 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 July 2000 sale was for 14% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 14% below the HPI over time, until the December 2015 sale, where it falls to 45% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 45% below the HPI.
