12 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 12 FORGE LANE sales between April 2008 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 April 2013 sale roughly matched the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks roughly in line with the HPI over time, until the October 2015 sale, where it falls to 19% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 19% below the HPI.
