9 SAFFRON CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Braintree local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 9 SAFFRON CLOSE sales between March 2000 and March 2025 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 2014 sale was for 12% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 12% below the HPI over time, until the March 2025 sale, where it rises to 2% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 2% below the HPI.
