ENFIELD LOCK COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Enfield local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three ENFIELD LOCK COTTAGE sales between March 1997 and May 2008 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 June 2003 sale was for 50% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 50% below the HPI over time, until the May 2008 sale, where it falls to 56% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 56% below the HPI.
