SWISS COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the South Hams local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two SWISS COTTAGE sales from March 2012 and October 2021 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 2012 sale was for 66% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 66% above the HPI over time, until the October 2021 sale, where it rises to 230% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 230% above the HPI.
