MAY COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Dorset local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three MAY COTTAGE sales between June 2001 and January 2021 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 November 2007 sale was for 50% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 50% above the HPI over time, until the January 2021 sale, where it falls to 31% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 31% above the HPI.
