The below table shows the price paid for the two sales, along with the average detached price in the Test Valley local authority area for the corresponding sale date. Both of the two TEST COTTAGE sales were for above the average price. The average price is sourced from the Office for National Statistics' House Price Index (HPI).
Date | Price | HPI Price | Variation from HPI |
---|---|---|---|

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Test Valley local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two TEST COTTAGE sales from March 1998 and August 2012 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 March 1998 sale was for 199% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 199% above the HPI over time, until the August 2012 sale, where it rises to 278% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 278% above the HPI.
