MOUNT COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Dorset local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four MOUNT COTTAGE sales between October 1997 and April 2015 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 August 2003 sale was for 26% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 26% below the HPI over time, until the April 2015 sale, which was also at 26% below the HPI.
