OWL COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Uttlesford local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three OWL COTTAGE sales between April 1999 and May 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 November 2002 sale was for 44% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 44% below the HPI over time, until the May 2013 sale, which was also at 44% below the HPI.
