The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Wealden local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two OLD POPESWOOD COTTAGE sales from January 2004 and September 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 January 2004 sale was for 85% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 85% below the HPI over time, until the September 2018 sale, where it rises to 108% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 108% above the HPI.
