41 LOVE LANE 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 41 LOVE LANE sales between August 1997 and December 2015 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 September 2002 sale was for 12% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 12% below the HPI over time, until the December 2015 sale, where it falls to 23% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 23% below the HPI.
