MARLPIT 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 three MARLPIT COTTAGE sales between January 2002 and August 2011 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 May 2003 sale was for 91% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 91% above the HPI over time, until the August 2011 sale, where it falls to 85% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 85% above the HPI.
