16 SHOREFIELDS 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 three 16 SHOREFIELDS sales between October 1997 and April 2014 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 March 2000 sale was for 18% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 18% below the HPI over time, until the April 2014 sale, where it falls to 24% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 24% below the HPI.
