17 FERNDOWN CLOSE 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 two 17 FERNDOWN CLOSE sales from May 2004 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 May 2004 sale was for 15% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 15% above the HPI over time, until the January 2012 sale, where it falls to 13% above the HPI.
