1 THE RED HOUSES 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 two 1 THE RED HOUSES sales from September 2012 and October 2015 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 September 2012 sale was for 63% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 63% below the HPI over time, until the October 2015 sale, where it rises to 48% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 48% below the HPI.
