FERN COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Wiltshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two FERN COTTAGE sales from November 1996 and October 2006 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 1996 sale was for 15% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 15% below the HPI over time, until the October 2006 sale, where it rises to 10% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 10% above the HPI.
