KINGS COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Dover local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The five KINGS COTTAGE sales between September 1996 and July 2007 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 2004 sale was for 28% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 28% below the HPI over time, until the July 2007 sale, where it rises to 23% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 23% below the HPI.
