2 SALT BOX COTTAGES 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 2 SALT BOX COTTAGES sales from November 2009 and April 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 November 2009 sale was for 29% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 29% below the HPI over time, until the April 2018 sale, where it rises to 15% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 15% below the HPI.
