LOWER COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Calderdale local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three LOWER COTTAGE sales between August 2009 and July 2021 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 July 2017 sale was for 18% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 18% above the HPI over time, until the July 2021 sale, where it falls to roughly the same level as the HPI. The line then continues to track in line with the HPI.
