OAK COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Tunbridge Wells local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three OAK COTTAGE sales between June 1999 and November 2010 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 November 2006 sale was for 32% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 32% below the HPI over time, until the November 2010 sale, where it falls to 50% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 50% below the HPI.
