THE COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Rother local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two THE COTTAGE sales from September 2003 and September 2019 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 September 2003 sale was for 46% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 46% above the HPI over time, until the September 2019 sale, where it falls to 10% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 10% above the HPI.
