3 THE MEWS Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Swale local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 3 THE MEWS sales between June 1998 and July 2016 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 2002 sale was for 5% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 5% below the HPI over time, until the July 2016 sale, where it falls to 12% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 12% below the HPI.
