18 LEIGH AVENUE 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 18 LEIGH AVENUE sales between February 1995 and November 2011 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 August 2003 sale was for 20% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 20% below the HPI over time, until the November 2011 sale, where it rises to 10% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 10% below the HPI.

What might 18 LEIGH AVENUE be worth now?
