ROWAN COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Wealden local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four ROWAN COTTAGE sales between February 1997 and September 2023 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 2015 sale was for 23% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 23% below the HPI over time, until the September 2023 sale, where it falls to 25% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 25% below the HPI.
