NORTON COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the West Berkshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three NORTON COTTAGE sales between June 2003 and December 2016 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 June 2010 sale was for 15% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 15% below the HPI over time, until the December 2016 sale, where it falls to 21% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 21% below the HPI.
