The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Trafford local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two SOUTH DOWNS COTTAGE sales from March 1998 and January 2022 have been plotted on the graph.

For example, the March 1998 sale was for 373% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 373% above the HPI over time, until the January 2022 sale, where it falls to 197% above the HPI.
