THE COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Cheshire West and Chester local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two THE COTTAGE sales from August 1998 and November 2024 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 August 1998 sale was for 42% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 42% above the HPI over time, until the November 2024 sale, where it falls to 16% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 16% above the HPI.
