26 SHEPHERDS GATE 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 two 26 SHEPHERDS GATE sales from September 1999 and November 2017 have been plotted on the graph.

For example, the September 1999 sale was for 40% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 40% above the HPI over time, until the November 2017 sale, where it falls to 7% above the HPI.
