The below graph shows the average detached house price in the South Staffordshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three LIGHT ASH COTTAGE sales between March 1998 and July 2011 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 2006 sale was for 39% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 39% above the HPI over time, until the July 2011 sale, where it rises to 40% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 40% above the HPI.
