78 COTTENHAM CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Tonbridge and Malling local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 78 COTTENHAM CLOSE sales from April 1995 and June 2002 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 April 1995 sale was for 22% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 22% above the HPI over time, until the June 2002 sale, where it falls to 1% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 1% above the HPI.
