MERRY MEAD Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Ashford local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three MERRY MEAD sales between February 2007 and October 2019 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 2011 sale was for 17% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 17% below the HPI over time, until the October 2019 sale, where it falls to 35% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 35% below the HPI.
