OLD FORGE COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Wealden local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three OLD FORGE COTTAGE sales between March 2002 and December 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 September 2004 sale was for 26% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 26% below the HPI over time, until the December 2014 sale, where it falls to 48% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 48% below the HPI.
