12 VERNON CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Sevenoaks local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 12 VERNON CLOSE sales from September 2018 and November 2020 have been plotted on the graph.

For example, the September 2018 sale was for 63% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 63% below the HPI over time, until the November 2020 sale, where it rises to 61% below the HPI.
