ROCK BOTTOM Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Cornwall local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three ROCK BOTTOM sales between September 2005 and August 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 August 2013 sale was for 81% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 81% above the HPI over time, until the August 2019 sale, where it falls to 3% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 3% above the HPI.
