THE COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Bromsgrove local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two THE COTTAGE sales from June 2011 and January 2022 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 June 2011 sale was for 19% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 19% below the HPI over time, until the January 2022 sale, where it rises to 46% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 46% above the HPI.
