1 ELDER COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Arun local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four 1 ELDER COTTAGE sales between May 1998 and July 2012 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 May 2004 sale was for 67% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 67% above the HPI over time, until the July 2012 sale, where it falls to 49% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 49% above the HPI.
