The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Reigate and Banstead local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The five 18 SMITHY LANE sales between July 1997 and January 2022 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 2012 sale was for 38% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 38% below the HPI over time, until the January 2022 sale, which was also at 38% below the HPI.
