PUMP COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Cherwell local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The five PUMP COTTAGE sales between September 1999 and January 2019 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 June 2015 sale was for 35% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 35% below the HPI over time, until the January 2019 sale, where it rises to 26% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 26% below the HPI.
