18 ARETHUSA ROAD 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 18 ARETHUSA ROAD sales from May 1996 and February 2024 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 1996 sale was for 51% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 51% below the HPI over time, until the February 2024 sale, where it rises to 16% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 16% below the HPI.
