CARTERS COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Tendring local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three CARTERS COTTAGE sales between February 2007 and May 2013 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 2010 sale was for 23% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 23% above the HPI over time, until the May 2013 sale, where it falls to 6% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 6% above the HPI.
