16 BELL WAY 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 16 BELL WAY sales from July 2015 and August 2018 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 July 2015 sale was for 50% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 50% below the HPI over time, until the August 2018 sale, where it rises to 41% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 41% below the HPI.

What might 16 BELL WAY be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 12.8%, between August 2018 and December 2024, for detached houses, in the Maidstone local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 12.8% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 16 BELL WAY of £322,000 on 10th August 2018. For the value to have increased from £322,000 to £363,171 over the five years and eight months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:
