ARDEN Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Sevenoaks local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two ARDEN sales from September 1997 and April 2021 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 28% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 28% below the HPI over time, until the April 2021 sale, where it falls to 41% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 41% below the HPI.
