OAK COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Breckland local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four OAK COTTAGE sales between July 1996 and November 2020 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 2011 sale was for 73% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 73% above the HPI over time, until the November 2020 sale, where it falls to 68% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 68% above the HPI.
