26 TOWER LANE 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 26 TOWER LANE sales between February 1996 and October 2020 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 1998 sale was for 81% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 81% above the HPI over time, until the October 2020 sale, where it falls to 74% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 74% above the HPI.
