MERRYMEAD 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 MERRYMEAD sales between February 2002 and August 2012 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 November 2003 sale was for 19% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 19% below the HPI over time, until the August 2012 sale, where it rises to 16% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 16% below the HPI.
