ORCHARD COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Bath and North East Somerset local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three ORCHARD COTTAGE sales between April 2003 and June 2011 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 2008 sale was for 65% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 65% above the HPI over time, until the June 2011 sale, where it falls to 52% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 52% above the HPI.
