The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Bath and North East Somerset local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four CROFT COTTAGE sales between December 1998 and May 2018 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 May 2008 sale was for 24% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 24% above the HPI over time, until the May 2018 sale, where it falls to 2% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 2% above the HPI.
