19 MELODY 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 three 19 MELODY CLOSE sales between December 1997 and April 2021 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 2016 sale was for 14% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 14% above the HPI over time, until the April 2021 sale, where it rises to 22% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 22% above the HPI.
