8 THE CROFT 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 two 8 THE CROFT sales from October 1997 and September 2017 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 October 1997 sale was for 22% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 22% below the HPI over time, until the September 2017 sale, where it falls to 29% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 29% below the HPI.
