The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Maidstone local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 10 LEYBOURNE CLOSE sales from September 1996 and May 2000 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 1996 sale was for 3% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 3% above the HPI over time, until the May 2000 sale, which was also at 3% above the HPI.
