8 FORSYTH 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 8 FORSYTH CLOSE sales between March 1999 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 July 2013 sale was for 40% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 40% below the HPI over time, until the February 2021 sale, where it rises to 34% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 34% below the HPI.

What might 8 FORSYTH CLOSE be worth now?
