THE CEDARS 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 THE CEDARS sales from May 1997 and December 2020 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 1997 sale was for 68% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 68% above the HPI over time, until the December 2020 sale, where it falls to 47% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 47% above the HPI.
