DOVE COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Winchester local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three DOVE COTTAGE sales between May 2002 and April 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 December 2012 sale was for 39% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 39% below the HPI over time, until the April 2017 sale, where it rises to 20% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 20% below the HPI.
