The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Wolverhampton local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three WASHINGTON COTTAGE sales between August 1997 and June 2010 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 August 2002 sale was for 183% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 183% above the HPI over time, until the June 2010 sale, where it falls to 143% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 143% above the HPI.
