HOLLY COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Stafford local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two HOLLY COTTAGE sales from August 2005 and October 2018 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 August 2005 sale was for 52% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 52% above the HPI over time, until the October 2018 sale, where it falls to 27% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 27% above the HPI.

What might HOLLY COTTAGE be worth now?
