CROWN COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the East Hertfordshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three CROWN COTTAGE sales between January 2012 and July 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 November 2013 sale was for 9% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 9% below the HPI over time, until the July 2018 sale, where it falls to 16% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 16% below the HPI.
