OLD FORGE COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Rother local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four OLD FORGE COTTAGE sales between December 1996 and March 2013 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 2004 sale was for 35% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 35% below the HPI over time, until the March 2013 sale, where it falls to 44% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 44% below the HPI.
