LYCH COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Woking local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two LYCH COTTAGE sales from June 2016 and August 2019 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 June 2016 sale was for 28% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 28% above the HPI over time, until the August 2019 sale, where it rises to 42% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 42% above the HPI.
