BOX COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Vale of White Horse local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The five BOX COTTAGE sales between June 1996 and July 2022 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 May 2016 sale was for 39% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 39% above the HPI over time, until the July 2022 sale, where it rises to 53% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 53% above the HPI.
