ELMSDOWN Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Epping Forest local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three ELMSDOWN sales between December 1998 and January 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 October 2001 sale was for 38% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 38% below the HPI over time, until the January 2018 sale, where it falls to 51% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 51% below the HPI.
