KNAPP COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Dorset local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two KNAPP COTTAGE sales from August 1996 and August 1998 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 1996 sale was for 46% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 46% below the HPI over time, until the August 1998 sale, where it rises to 10% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 10% above the HPI.
