HURSTDENE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Tunbridge Wells local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three HURSTDENE sales between October 1996 and January 2023 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 March 2011 sale was for 47% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 47% above the HPI over time, until the January 2023 sale, where it falls to 46% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 46% above the HPI.
