The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Kirklees local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The five BENTONY COTTAGE sales between October 1996 and May 2018 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 2017 sale was for 51% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 51% above the HPI over time, until the May 2018 sale, which was also at 51% above the HPI.
