242 ROCHESTER STREET 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 242 ROCHESTER STREET sales between April 1997 and July 2014 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 1999 sale was for 40% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 40% below the HPI over time, until the July 2014 sale, where it rises to 38% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 38% below the HPI.
