THE WEE COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Wealden local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two THE WEE COTTAGE sales from December 2003 and February 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 December 2003 sale was for 60% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 60% above the HPI over time, until the February 2024 sale, where it rises to 69% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 69% above the HPI.
