22 LONGFIELDS 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 22 LONGFIELDS DRIVE sales from September 1995 and April 2002 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 September 1995 sale was for 28% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 28% above the HPI over time, until the April 2002 sale, where it falls to 11% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 11% above the HPI.

What might 22 LONGFIELDS DRIVE be worth now?

The 163.4% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 22 LONGFIELDS DRIVE of £259,995 on 11th April 2002. For the value to have increased from £259,995 to £684,767 over the 21 years and four months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:
