SHOTLEY COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Babergh local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two SHOTLEY COTTAGE sales from September 1995 and March 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 1995 sale was for 66% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 66% above the HPI over time, until the March 2021 sale, where it falls to 7% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 7% below the HPI.
