CHAUCER 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 three CHAUCER sales between August 1997 and February 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 September 2001 sale was for 52% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 52% above the HPI over time, until the February 2004 sale, where it falls to 46% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 46% above the HPI.
