SKY COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Staffordshire Moorlands local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three SKY COTTAGE sales between November 1996 and October 2014 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 2002 sale was for 90% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 90% above the HPI over time, until the October 2014 sale, where it falls to 89% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 89% above the HPI.
