4 POACHERS 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 4 POACHERS CLOSE sales between August 1995 and July 2024 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 2020 sale was for 37% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 37% below the HPI over time, until the July 2024 sale, where it rises to 25% below the HPI.
