THORLEY 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 two THORLEY COTTAGE sales from October 2015 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 October 2015 sale was for 14% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 14% above the HPI over time, until the September 2019 sale, where it falls to 10% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 10% above the HPI.
