COBB COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Three Rivers local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two COBB COTTAGE sales from February 1996 and May 2002 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 February 1996 sale was for 203% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 203% above the HPI over time, until the May 2002 sale, where it falls to 118% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 118% above the HPI.
