POUND 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 POUND COTTAGE sales from September 1997 and October 2003 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 September 1997 sale was for 6% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 6% below the HPI over time, until the October 2003 sale, where it rises to 3% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 3% below the HPI.
