WHITE COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Somerset local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two WHITE COTTAGE sales from February 2003 and January 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 February 2003 sale was for 14% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 14% above the HPI over time, until the January 2010 sale, where it falls to 14% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 14% below the HPI.
