RICHBOROUGH COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Dover local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four RICHBOROUGH COTTAGE sales between May 1995 and April 2016 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 2005 sale was for 66% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 66% above the HPI over time, until the April 2016 sale, where it rises to 86% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 86% above the HPI.
