ACORN COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Mid Suffolk local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two ACORN COTTAGE sales from April 2001 and August 2013 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 April 2001 sale was for 32% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 32% above the HPI over time, until the August 2013 sale, where it falls to 13% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 13% above the HPI.
