STAR COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Wealden local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two STAR COTTAGE sales from November 2008 and December 2010 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 2008 sale was for 7% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 7% above the HPI over time, until the December 2010 sale, where it rises to 52% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 52% above the HPI.
