BECK COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Westmorland and Furness local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two BECK COTTAGE sales from June 2002 and March 2016 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 June 2002 sale was for 24% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 24% above the HPI over time, until the March 2016 sale, where it rises to 184% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 184% above the HPI.
