BARLEY THORPE COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Cherwell local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two BARLEY THORPE COTTAGE sales from October 2003 and June 2012 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 October 2003 sale was for 1% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 1% below the HPI over time, until the June 2012 sale, where it rises to 30% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 30% above the HPI.
