SCYTHE COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Breckland local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four SCYTHE COTTAGE sales between June 1999 and June 2021 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 2019 sale was for 36% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 36% above the HPI over time, until the June 2021 sale, where it rises to 53% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 53% above the HPI.
