BENNETTS END COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Shropshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three BENNETTS END COTTAGE sales between March 2005 and June 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 March 2015 sale was for 175% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 175% above the HPI over time, until the June 2023 sale, where it falls to 165% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 165% above the HPI.
