PEAR TREE COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Ashford local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two PEAR TREE COTTAGE sales from July 1995 and October 2008 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 1995 sale was for 28% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 28% above the HPI over time, until the October 2008 sale, where it falls to 21% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 21% above the HPI.
