THE FOLLIES 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 THE FOLLIES sales between November 2002 and July 2019 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 2006 sale was for 82% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 82% above the HPI over time, until the July 2019 sale, where it falls to 44% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 44% above the HPI.
