Land registry data shows two sales for STAR COTTAGE since 1st January 1995. The below table shows the price paid for the two sales, along with the average detached price in the Rother local authority area for the corresponding sale date. Both of the two STAR COTTAGE sales were for below the average price. The average price is sourced from the Office for National Statistics' House Price Index (HPI).
Date | Price | HPI Price | Variation from HPI |
---|---|---|---|
2004 28 JUL | £275,000 | £284,185 | 3% below HPI |
2000 2 OCT | £142,500 | £177,157 | 20% below HPI |
The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Rother local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two STAR COTTAGE sales from October 2000 and July 2004 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 October 2000 sale was for 20% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 20% below the HPI over time, until the July 2004 sale, where it rises to 3% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 3% below the HPI.
