CHRISTMAS COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Arun local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three CHRISTMAS COTTAGE sales between October 1996 and March 2014 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 2003 sale was for 7% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 7% above the HPI over time, until the March 2014 sale, where it rises to 45% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 45% above the HPI.
