YORK COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Trafford local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two YORK COTTAGE sales from March 2004 and January 2014 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 2004 sale was for 6% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 6% below the HPI over time, until the January 2014 sale, where it rises to 27% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 27% above the HPI.
