FIELD COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Westmorland and Furness local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two FIELD COTTAGE sales from November 1998 and July 1999 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 1998 sale was for 25% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 25% above the HPI over time, until the July 1999 sale, where it rises to 49% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 49% above the HPI.
