BOW COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Tendring local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two BOW COTTAGE sales from December 2005 and December 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 December 2005 sale was for 14% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 14% above the HPI over time, until the December 2018 sale, where it rises to 17% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 17% above the HPI.
