HOLLY COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Forest of Dean local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three HOLLY COTTAGE sales between November 2000 and March 2024 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 October 2006 sale was for 22% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 22% above the HPI over time, until the March 2024 sale, where it falls to 13% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 13% above the HPI.
