2 MAIDS CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Ashford local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 2 MAIDS CLOSE sales from April 2016 and July 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 April 2016 sale was for 24% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 24% below the HPI over time, until the July 2018 sale, where it rises to 23% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 23% below the HPI.

What might 2 MAIDS CLOSE be worth now?
