BEECH COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Three Rivers local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three BEECH COTTAGE sales between April 1997 and April 2023 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 September 2012 sale was for 10% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 10% above the HPI over time, until the April 2023 sale, where it falls to 9% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 9% below the HPI.
