CHESTNUT TREE COTTAGE 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 two CHESTNUT TREE COTTAGE sales from March 2019 and November 2023 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 March 2019 sale was for 33% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 33% below the HPI over time, until the November 2023 sale, where it rises to 25% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 25% below the HPI.
