Land registry data shows three sales for THE POPLARS since 1st January 1995. The below table shows the price paid for the three sales, along with the average detached price in the Tunbridge Wells local authority area for the corresponding sale date. All of the three THE POPLARS sales were for above the average price. The average price is sourced from the Office for National Statistics' House Price Index (HPI).
Date | Price | HPI Price | Variation from HPI |
---|---|---|---|
2017 6 JAN | £1,400,000 | £700,791 | 100% above HPI |
2011 31 MAR | £1,200,000 | £529,804 | 126% above HPI |
1996 21 JUN | £344,000 | £145,252 | 137% above HPI |
The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Tunbridge Wells local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three THE POPLARS sales between June 1996 and January 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 March 2011 sale was for 126% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 126% above the HPI over time, until the January 2017 sale, where it falls to 100% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 100% above the HPI.
