THE COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Newark and Sherwood local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two THE COTTAGE sales from September 1996 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 September 1996 sale was for 23% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 23% below the HPI over time, until the December 2018 sale, where it falls to 26% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 26% below the HPI.
