8 LONGLEY ROAD 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 8 LONGLEY ROAD sales between August 1997 and December 2017 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 May 2012 sale was for 30% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 30% below the HPI over time, until the December 2017 sale, where it falls to 36% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 36% below the HPI.
