4 CARP CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Tonbridge and Malling local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four 4 CARP CLOSE sales between September 2003 and September 2021 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 June 2008 sale was for 23% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 23% below the HPI over time, until the September 2021 sale, where it rises to 22% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 22% below the HPI.
