BLACKBIRD COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Broxbourne local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two BLACKBIRD COTTAGE sales from July 1997 and March 2001 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 July 1997 sale was for 17% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 17% above the HPI over time, until the March 2001 sale, where it falls to 6% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 6% above the HPI.
