36 NORTHDOWN CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Maidstone local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 36 NORTHDOWN CLOSE sales from December 1999 and December 2014 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 December 1999 sale was for 26% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 26% above the HPI over time, until the December 2014 sale, where it rises to 27% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 27% above the HPI.
