14 SHEARWATER 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 14 SHEARWATER sales from June 2012 and October 2016 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 June 2012 sale was for 17% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 17% below the HPI over time, until the October 2016 sale, where it rises to 12% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 12% below the HPI.
