54 BETJEMAN 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 three 54 BETJEMAN CLOSE sales between May 2002 and May 2016 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 2004 sale was for 38% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 38% below the HPI over time, until the May 2016 sale, where it falls to 48% below the HPI.
