BIRCH HOUSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Tendring local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two BIRCH HOUSE sales from May 1997 and December 2007 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 May 1997 sale was for 170% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 170% above the HPI over time, until the December 2007 sale, where it falls to 105% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 105% above the HPI.
