LITTLE BARTON 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 three LITTLE BARTON sales between June 2005 and January 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 March 2008 sale was for 51% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 51% above the HPI over time, until the January 2016 sale, where it falls to 18% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 18% above the HPI.
