BANKSIDE COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Lichfield local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two BANKSIDE COTTAGE sales from August 2011 and December 2017 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 August 2011 sale was for 20% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 20% below the HPI over time, until the December 2017 sale, where it rises to 18% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 18% below the HPI.
