The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Medway local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 5 HOUGHTON AVENUE sales between April 1997 and February 2010 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 February 2000 sale was for 44% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 44% above the HPI over time, until the February 2010 sale, where it falls to 40% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 40% above the HPI.
