The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Tonbridge and Malling local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 252 LONDON ROAD sales between October 2002 and September 2003 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 2003 sale was for 17% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 17% below the HPI over time, until the September 2003 sale, where it rises to roughly the same level as the HPI. The line then continues to track in line with the HPI.
