PRIMROSE 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 three PRIMROSE COTTAGE sales between October 1996 and February 2018 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 May 2007 sale roughly matched the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks roughly in line with the HPI over time, until the February 2018 sale, where it rises to 4% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 4% above the HPI.
