8 READING CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Dover local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 8 READING CLOSE sales between June 2010 and December 2020 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 2012 sale was for 17% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 17% below the HPI over time, until the December 2020 sale, where it falls to 27% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 27% below the HPI.
