REED COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Exeter local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two REED COTTAGE sales from September 2003 and October 2022 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 2003 sale was for 26% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 26% below the HPI over time, until the October 2022 sale, where it rises to 18% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 18% above the HPI.
