HOPE COTTAGE 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 HOPE COTTAGE sales from July 2009 and July 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 July 2009 sale was for 35% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 35% above the HPI over time, until the July 2017 sale, where it rises to 47% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 47% above the HPI.
