LANE COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Oldham local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two LANE COTTAGE sales from December 1997 and April 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 December 1997 sale was for 169% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 169% above the HPI over time, until the April 2013 sale, where it rises to 187% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 187% above the HPI.
