PURLEY COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Dorset local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three PURLEY COTTAGE sales between January 1999 and October 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 2001 sale was for 153% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 153% above the HPI over time, until the October 2019 sale, where it falls to 67% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 67% above the HPI.
