THE HEIGHTS Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Dover local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two THE HEIGHTS sales from December 2014 and March 2018 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 December 2014 sale was for 20% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 20% below the HPI over time, until the March 2018 sale, where it rises to 9% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 9% below the HPI.
