BIRCHES COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Newcastle-under-Lyme local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two BIRCHES COTTAGE sales from April 2002 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 April 2002 sale was for 119% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 119% above the HPI over time, until the August 2022 sale, where it falls to 78% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 78% above the HPI.
