WHITE HORSE COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Braintree local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four WHITE HORSE COTTAGE sales between July 1996 and August 2018 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 April 2013 sale was for 37% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 37% above the HPI over time, until the August 2018 sale, where it falls to 26% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 26% above the HPI.
