BITTERSWEET COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Runnymede local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two BITTERSWEET COTTAGE sales from June 1999 and October 2003 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 1999 sale was for 76% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 76% above the HPI over time, until the October 2003 sale, where it falls to 23% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 23% above the HPI.
