OAK COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Uttlesford local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The five OAK COTTAGE sales between May 1996 and July 2018 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 April 2005 sale was for 30% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 30% below the HPI over time, until the July 2018 sale, where it falls to 31% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 31% below the HPI.
