THE BLUE COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Eastleigh local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two THE BLUE COTTAGE sales from May 2018 and August 2023 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 2018 sale was for 29% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 29% above the HPI over time, until the August 2023 sale, where it rises to 60% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 60% above the HPI.
