7 LYRA 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 three 7 LYRA CLOSE sales between August 2008 and April 2019 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 November 2012 sale was for 60% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 60% above the HPI over time, until the April 2019 sale, where it falls to 20% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 20% above the HPI.
