THE LAURELS 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 two THE LAURELS sales from August 1999 and June 2009 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 August 1999 sale was for 36% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 36% below the HPI over time, until the June 2009 sale, which was also at 36% below the HPI.
