TOP COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the East Lindsey local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two TOP COTTAGE sales from September 1997 and December 2001 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 1997 sale was for 30% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 30% below the HPI over time, until the December 2001 sale, where it rises to 21% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 21% below the HPI.
