14 LONGFIELDS DRIVE 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 six 14 LONGFIELDS DRIVE sales between May 1996 and May 2010 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 2006 sale was for 35% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 35% below the HPI over time, until the May 2010 sale, where it rises to 31% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 31% below the HPI.

What might 14 LONGFIELDS DRIVE be worth now?
