OAK COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the New Forest local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three OAK COTTAGE sales between May 2007 and August 2019 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 2013 sale was for 152% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 152% above the HPI over time, until the August 2019 sale, where it falls to 116% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 116% above the HPI.
