7 HAMPTON CLOSE 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 four 7 HAMPTON CLOSE sales between April 1998 and April 2007 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 March 2004 sale was for 12% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 12% below the HPI over time, until the April 2007 sale, where it falls to 41% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 41% below the HPI.
