OLD FORGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Thurrock local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two OLD FORGE sales from March 2018 and September 2019 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 March 2018 sale was for 31% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 31% below the HPI over time, until the September 2019 sale, where it rises to 60% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 60% above the HPI.
