SPRING COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Dorset local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four SPRING COTTAGE sales between October 1999 and October 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 July 2007 sale was for 110% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 110% above the HPI over time, until the October 2015 sale, where it rises to 122% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 122% above the HPI.
