12 RIPON CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Medway local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 12 RIPON CLOSE sales between May 2000 and April 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 February 2013 sale was for 35% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 35% below the HPI over time, until the April 2018 sale, where it falls to 37% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 37% below the HPI.
