THE FIRS Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Ashford local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The five THE FIRS sales between April 1998 and February 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 October 2020 sale was for 125% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 125% above the HPI over time, until the February 2022 sale, where it rises to 127% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 127% above the HPI.
