The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Medway local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 20 SMARDEN WALK sales between August 1997 and May 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 November 2016 sale was for 34% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 34% below the HPI over time, until the May 2021 sale, which was also at 34% below the HPI.
