SEATHWAITE COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Westmorland and Furness local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two SEATHWAITE COTTAGE sales from September 2010 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 September 2010 sale was for 216% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 216% above the HPI over time, until the June 2021 sale, where it falls to 184% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 184% above the HPI.
