The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Tunbridge Wells local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four WORMS LODGE COTTAGE sales between September 1995 and January 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 28% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 28% below the HPI over time, until the January 2012 sale, which was also at 28% below the HPI.
