BIRCHELL COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Torfaen local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two BIRCHELL COTTAGE sales from November 2008 and March 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 November 2008 sale was for 56% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 56% below the HPI over time, until the March 2010 sale, where it rises to 36% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 36% below the HPI.
