FORGE COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Somerset local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two FORGE COTTAGE sales from March 1996 and December 2014 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 March 1996 sale was for 3% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 3% below the HPI over time, until the December 2014 sale, where it falls to 38% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 38% below the HPI.
