4 LARKING DRIVE 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 four 4 LARKING DRIVE sales between February 2000 and February 2021 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 2009 sale was for 9% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 9% above the HPI over time, until the February 2021 sale, where it rises to 23% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 23% above the HPI.

What might 4 LARKING DRIVE be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 16.6%, between February 2021 and December 2024, for semi-detached houses, in the Maidstone local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 16.6% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 4 LARKING DRIVE of £400,000 on 4th February 2021. For the value to have increased from £400,000 to £466,301 over the two years and two months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:
