CLOVER COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Sevenoaks local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two CLOVER COTTAGE sales from January 1995 and December 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 January 1995 sale was for 20% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 20% below the HPI over time, until the December 2015 sale, where it falls to 31% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 31% below the HPI.
