18 KIPLING DRIVE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Tonbridge and Malling local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four 18 KIPLING DRIVE sales between May 1997 and December 2017 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 October 2011 sale was for 35% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 35% below the HPI over time, until the December 2017 sale, where it rises to 21% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 21% below the HPI.
