8 FORGE LANE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Maidstone local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 8 FORGE LANE sales between August 1996 and January 2014 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 April 1999 sale was for 53% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 53% above the HPI over time, until the January 2014 sale, where it falls to 50% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 50% above the HPI.
