2 BIRLING DRIVE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Tunbridge Wells local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 2 BIRLING DRIVE sales from January 2007 and October 2020 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 January 2007 sale was for 2% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 2% above the HPI over time, until the October 2020 sale, where it rises to 3% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 3% above the HPI.
