The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Swale local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 9A DOWNS CLOSE sales from September 2009 and January 2015 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 September 2009 sale was for 24% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 24% below the HPI over time, until the January 2015 sale, which was also at 24% below the HPI.
