The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Medway local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The seven 40 SHEPHERDS GATE sales between March 1998 and June 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 July 2012 sale was for 26% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 26% below the HPI over time, until the June 2020 sale, which was also at 26% below the HPI.
