VIRGINIA COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the East Devon local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three VIRGINIA COTTAGE sales between June 1995 and August 2011 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 June 2005 sale was for 16% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 16% above the HPI over time, until the August 2011 sale, where it rises to 47% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 47% above the HPI.
