19 THE FINCHES Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Swale local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 19 THE FINCHES sales from August 2004 and July 2015 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 August 2004 sale was for 15% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 15% below the HPI over time, until the July 2015 sale, where it falls to 16% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 16% below the HPI.
