THE LIMES Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Tonbridge and Malling local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four THE LIMES sales between June 1997 and July 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 2005 sale was for 64% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 64% above the HPI over time, until the July 2012 sale, where it rises to 71% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 71% above the HPI.
