BANTAM COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the York local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The five BANTAM COTTAGE sales between August 2002 and October 2021 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 2014 sale was for 25% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 25% below the HPI over time, until the October 2021 sale, where it falls to 40% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 40% below the HPI.
