160 ORCHARD COTTAGES Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Reigate and Banstead local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 160 ORCHARD COTTAGES sales from January 2004 and January 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 January 2004 sale was for 46% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 46% below the HPI over time, until the January 2020 sale, where it falls to 55% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 55% below the HPI.
