HILLCREST Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Ashford local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two HILLCREST sales from October 2018 and December 2018 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 2018 sale was for 99% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 99% below the HPI over time, until the December 2018 sale, where it rises to 25% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 25% above the HPI.
