AMBER COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Somerset local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two AMBER COTTAGE sales from January 1997 and February 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 January 1997 sale was for 9% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 9% above the HPI over time, until the February 2018 sale, where it falls to 19% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 19% below the HPI.
