CREEK COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Tendring local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two CREEK COTTAGE sales from November 1997 and September 2019 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 1997 sale was for 210% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 210% above the HPI over time, until the September 2019 sale, where it falls to 93% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 93% above the HPI.
