MELROSE COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Buckinghamshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two MELROSE COTTAGE sales from October 2013 and July 2022 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 October 2013 sale was for 88% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 88% above the HPI over time, until the July 2022 sale, where it falls to 49% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 49% above the HPI.
