THE GARDEN COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Somerset local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two THE GARDEN COTTAGE sales from November 1998 and August 2007 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 1998 sale was for 26% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 26% above the HPI over time, until the August 2007 sale, where it falls to 11% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 11% below the HPI.
