The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Forest of Dean local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The six HILL START COTTAGE sales between August 1999 and March 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 October 2011 sale was for 34% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 34% below the HPI over time, until the March 2017 sale, which was also at 34% below the HPI.
