GARDEN 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 GARDEN COTTAGE sales from November 1996 and December 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 1996 sale was for 7% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 7% above the HPI over time, until the December 2021 sale, where it rises to 14% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 14% above the HPI.
