The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Dorset local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four BAY TREE COTTAGE sales between January 1999 and July 2007 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 December 2003 sale was for 45% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 45% above the HPI over time, until the July 2007 sale, where it rises to 50% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 50% above the HPI.
