MERE COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Cheshire East local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three MERE COTTAGE sales between September 1997 and August 2012 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 2007 sale was for 341% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 341% above the HPI over time, until the August 2012 sale, where it rises to 362% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 362% above the HPI.
