SCHOOL COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Guildford local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two SCHOOL COTTAGE sales from December 2010 and October 2018 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 2010 sale was for 19% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 19% below the HPI over time, until the October 2018 sale, where it falls to 31% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 31% below the HPI.
