THE COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the West Oxfordshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two THE COTTAGE sales from July 1996 and June 2001 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 July 1996 sale was for 53% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 53% below the HPI over time, until the June 2001 sale, where it rises to 35% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 35% above the HPI.
