FERN COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Stroud local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three FERN COTTAGE sales between October 1997 and May 2021 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 2003 sale was for 83% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 83% below the HPI over time, until the May 2021 sale, where it rises to 29% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 29% above the HPI.
