RAINBOW COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the North Yorkshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two RAINBOW COTTAGE sales from January 1996 and June 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 January 1996 sale was for 82% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 82% above the HPI over time, until the June 2019 sale, where it falls to 65% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 65% above the HPI.
