5 BRONTE CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Tonbridge and Malling local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four 5 BRONTE CLOSE sales between September 1998 and February 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 2017 sale was for 44% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 44% below the HPI over time, until the February 2021 sale, which was also at 44% below the HPI.
