HILARY COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Gravesham local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two HILARY COTTAGE sales from July 2007 and December 2013 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 2007 sale was for 4% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 4% above the HPI over time, until the December 2013 sale, where it falls to 18% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 18% below the HPI.
