The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Ashford local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 4 THE ORCHIDS sales from April 2000 and July 2020 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 2000 sale was for 30% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 30% above the HPI over time, until the July 2020 sale, where it falls to 24% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 24% above the HPI.
