LONG SPRING COTTAGE 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 two LONG SPRING COTTAGE sales from December 2006 and March 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 December 2006 sale was for 21% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 21% below the HPI over time, until the March 2016 sale, where it rises to 2% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 2% below the HPI.
