THE COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Tandridge local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three THE COTTAGE sales between April 2003 and June 2015 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 January 2013 sale was for 46% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 46% below the HPI over time, until the June 2015 sale, where it rises to 41% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 41% below the HPI.
