POND COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Tonbridge and Malling local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two POND COTTAGE sales from July 2007 and May 2017 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 July 2007 sale was for 70% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 70% above the HPI over time, until the May 2017 sale, where it falls to 38% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 38% above the HPI.
