WELL 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 WELL COTTAGE sales between August 1995 and February 2017 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 March 2010 sale was for 7% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 7% above the HPI over time, until the February 2017 sale, where it rises to 25% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 25% above the HPI.
