5 BAYSWATER DRIVE 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 three 5 BAYSWATER DRIVE sales between September 1997 and March 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 December 1999 sale was for 10% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 10% above the HPI over time, until the March 2024 sale, where it falls to 19% below the HPI.
