ORCHARD COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Buckinghamshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three ORCHARD COTTAGE sales between September 1999 and January 2021 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 July 2002 sale was for 30% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 30% above the HPI over time, until the January 2021 sale, where it rises to 31% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 31% above the HPI.
