CHURCH COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Forest of Dean local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two CHURCH COTTAGE sales from September 1997 and February 2004 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 September 1997 sale was for 32% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 32% below the HPI over time, until the February 2004 sale, where it rises to 14% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 14% below the HPI.
