HOLLY COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Cherwell local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three HOLLY COTTAGE sales between May 2001 and July 2015 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 2010 sale was for 41% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 41% below the HPI over time, until the July 2015 sale, where it falls to 46% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 46% below the HPI.
