98 LONDON ROAD 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 two 98 LONDON ROAD sales from April 1997 and May 2004 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 April 1997 sale was for 21% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 21% below the HPI over time, until the May 2004 sale, where it rises to 17% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 17% below the HPI.
