The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Tunbridge Wells local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four KIFTSGATE sales between April 1997 and January 2017 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 2006 sale was for 74% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 74% above the HPI over time, until the January 2017 sale, where it rises to 75% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 75% above the HPI.
