SOMERSBURY COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Guildford local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two SOMERSBURY COTTAGE sales from May 2000 and February 2015 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 May 2000 sale was for 105% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 105% above the HPI over time, until the February 2015 sale, where it falls to 90% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 90% above the HPI.
