ISLAND COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Ashford local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three ISLAND COTTAGE sales between June 1995 and February 2006 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 2002 sale was for 96% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 96% above the HPI over time, until the February 2006 sale, where it falls to 74% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 74% above the HPI.
