SHELL COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Mid Suffolk local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two SHELL COTTAGE sales from June 2004 and January 2017 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 2004 sale was for 22% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 22% below the HPI over time, until the January 2017 sale, where it falls to 27% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 27% below the HPI.
