LINDEN COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Dartford local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two LINDEN COTTAGE sales from May 1997 and July 2005 have been plotted on the graph.

For example, the May 1997 sale was for 58% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 58% below the HPI over time, until the July 2005 sale, where it rises to 29% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 29% below the HPI.
