18 THE BRIARS Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Sevenoaks local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 18 THE BRIARS sales between December 1995 and February 2016 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 2002 sale was for 64% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 64% below the HPI over time, until the February 2016 sale, where it falls to 65% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 65% below the HPI.
