CROFT COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Cornwall local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two CROFT COTTAGE sales from August 1995 and October 2017 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 August 1995 sale was for 30% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 30% below the HPI over time, until the October 2017 sale, where it rises to 4% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 4% below the HPI.
