THE FINNEYS Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Medway local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two THE FINNEYS sales from December 2000 and June 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 December 2000 sale was for 51% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 51% above the HPI over time, until the June 2021 sale, where it falls to 11% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 11% above the HPI.
