The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Maidstone local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 18 ASHFORD DRIVE sales from November 1995 and April 2013 have been plotted on the graph.

For example, the November 1995 sale was for 12% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 12% below the HPI over time, until the April 2013 sale, where it falls to 13% below the HPI.
