9 BALE 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 9 BALE CLOSE sales between December 1997 and September 2016 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 June 2007 sale was for 25% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 25% below the HPI over time, until the September 2016 sale, where it rises to 17% below the HPI.
