BARN COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Cherwell local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four BARN COTTAGE sales between November 2009 and August 2022 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 2018 sale was for 27% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 27% below the HPI over time, until the August 2022 sale, where it falls to 28% below the HPI.
