WESSEX 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 two WESSEX COTTAGE sales from January 2004 and January 2023 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 January 2004 sale was for 36% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 36% above the HPI over time, until the January 2023 sale, where it falls to 7% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 7% below the HPI.
