3 HOWLSMERE CLOSE 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 four 3 HOWLSMERE CLOSE sales between April 1996 and August 2015 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 April 2014 sale was for 22% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 22% above the HPI over time, until the August 2015 sale, where it falls to 18% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 18% above the HPI.
