DRIFTWOOD COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Buckinghamshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two DRIFTWOOD COTTAGE sales from December 2020 and June 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 December 2020 sale was for 104% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 104% above the HPI over time, until the June 2022 sale, where it falls to 28% below the HPI.
