The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Chelmsford local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two BLIND POND COTTAGE sales from August 2009 and July 2018 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 August 2009 sale was for 181% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 181% above the HPI over time, until the July 2018 sale, where it falls to 111% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 111% above the HPI.
