3 KINGFISHER DRIVE 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 3 KINGFISHER DRIVE sales from July 2013 and September 2017 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 2013 sale was for 38% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 38% below the HPI over time, until the September 2017 sale, which was also at 38% below the HPI.

What might 3 KINGFISHER DRIVE be worth now?
