2 MELFORD DRIVE 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 2 MELFORD DRIVE sales from November 1995 and August 1998 have been plotted on the graph.

For example, the November 1995 sale was for 16% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 16% above the HPI over time, until the August 1998 sale, where it rises to 20% above the HPI.
