CASTLE COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Shropshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three CASTLE COTTAGE sales between March 1999 and November 2017 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 August 2001 sale was for 24% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 24% below the HPI over time, until the November 2017 sale, where it rises to 9% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 9% below the HPI.
