BENTLEYS Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Tunbridge Wells local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four BENTLEYS sales between July 2009 and May 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 May 2016 sale was for 4% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 4% below the HPI over time, until the May 2017 sale, where it falls to 21% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 21% below the HPI.
