SWALLOW COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Westmorland and Furness local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two SWALLOW COTTAGE sales from January 1998 and September 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 1998 sale was for 8% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 8% above the HPI over time, until the September 2014 sale, where it rises to 41% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 41% above the HPI.
