BYWAYS 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 two BYWAYS sales from October 1995 and August 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 October 1995 sale was for 4% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 4% above the HPI over time, until the August 2015 sale, where it rises to 38% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 38% above the HPI.
