LITTLE COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Wokingham local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three LITTLE COTTAGE sales between September 1996 and September 2009 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 2007 sale was for 13% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 13% above the HPI over time, until the September 2009 sale, where it rises to 17% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 17% above the HPI.
