OLD POLICE COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Cheshire East local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two OLD POLICE COTTAGE sales from March 2010 and December 2018 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 March 2010 sale was for 12% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 12% below the HPI over time, until the December 2018 sale, where it rises to 10% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 10% above the HPI.
