PROSPECT COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the West Suffolk local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two PROSPECT COTTAGE sales from February 1998 and August 2004 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 1998 sale was for 65% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 65% above the HPI over time, until the August 2004 sale, where it falls to 34% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 34% above the HPI.
