OAK COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Babergh local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two OAK COTTAGE sales from February 1995 and August 2006 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 February 1995 sale was for 13% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 13% above the HPI over time, until the August 2006 sale, where it falls to 11% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 11% above the HPI.
