CASTLE COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the East Devon local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three CASTLE COTTAGE sales between September 2001 and November 2019 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 August 2016 sale was for 29% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 29% below the HPI over time, until the November 2019 sale, where it falls to 41% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 41% below the HPI.
