DRIFTWOOD Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Dover local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two DRIFTWOOD sales from September 2015 and May 2016 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 2015 sale was for 18% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 18% above the HPI over time, until the May 2016 sale, where it falls to 13% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 13% above the HPI.
