The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Medway local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 46 LAMPLIGHTERS CLOSE sales from May 1999 and January 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 May 1999 sale was for 80% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 80% above the HPI over time, until the January 2021 sale, where it falls to 45% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 45% above the HPI.
