ELM COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Somerset local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two ELM COTTAGE sales from July 2001 and January 2017 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 July 2001 sale was for 17% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 17% above the HPI over time, until the January 2017 sale, where it rises to 42% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 42% above the HPI.
