THE COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Forest of Dean local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four THE COTTAGE sales between May 2000 and May 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 July 2022 sale was for 34% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 34% above the HPI over time, until the May 2024 sale, where it rises to 36% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 36% above the HPI.
