ORCHARD COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Torbay local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four ORCHARD COTTAGE sales between June 2002 and October 2015 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 February 2007 sale was for 24% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 24% above the HPI over time, until the October 2015 sale, where it falls to 7% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 7% above the HPI.
