SWAN COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Wealden local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two SWAN COTTAGE sales from May 2002 and August 2011 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 2002 sale was for 50% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 50% above the HPI over time, until the August 2011 sale, where it rises to 149% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 149% above the HPI.
