23 HUGHES DRIVE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Medway local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 23 HUGHES DRIVE sales from July 2014 and February 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 July 2014 sale was for 5% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 5% above the HPI over time, until the February 2020 sale, where it falls to 3% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 3% above the HPI.

What might 23 HUGHES DRIVE be worth now?
