IVES COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the East Hertfordshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four IVES COTTAGE sales between November 1996 and November 2014 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 August 2004 sale was for 55% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 55% below the HPI over time, until the November 2014 sale, where it falls to 68% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 68% below the HPI.
