COMPASS COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Dorset local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two COMPASS COTTAGE sales from February 2011 and April 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 February 2011 sale was for 14% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 14% above the HPI over time, until the April 2019 sale, where it falls to 11% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 11% above the HPI.
