LOUSTADU Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Swale local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two LOUSTADU sales from January 2007 and May 2022 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 January 2007 sale was for 11% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 11% above the HPI over time, until the May 2022 sale, where it falls to 2% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 2% below the HPI.
