CLOVER COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Bromsgrove local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three CLOVER COTTAGE sales between November 1996 and June 2008 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 November 2000 sale was for 20% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 20% below the HPI over time, until the June 2008 sale, where it falls to 26% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 26% below the HPI.
