8 SOUTH COTTAGE DRIVE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Three Rivers local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 8 SOUTH COTTAGE DRIVE sales from January 2000 and September 2023 have been plotted on the graph.

For example, the January 2000 sale was for 25% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 25% below the HPI over time, until the September 2023 sale, where it falls to 26% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 26% below the HPI.
