ORCHARD COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Colchester local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three ORCHARD COTTAGE sales between June 2008 and September 2022 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 December 2009 sale was for 61% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 61% above the HPI over time, until the September 2022 sale, where it falls to 51% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 51% above the HPI.
