NEW COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Tendring local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two NEW COTTAGE sales from March 2004 and June 2014 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 March 2004 sale was for 52% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 52% above the HPI over time, until the June 2014 sale, where it rises to 73% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 73% above the HPI.
