BELL COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Chichester local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two BELL COTTAGE sales from October 1998 and August 2010 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 1998 sale was for 28% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 28% above the HPI over time, until the August 2010 sale, where it rises to 94% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 94% above the HPI.
