BEAR COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Stroud local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two BEAR COTTAGE sales from March 2014 and September 2020 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 2014 sale was for 71% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 71% above the HPI over time, until the September 2020 sale, where it rises to 78% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 78% above the HPI.
