5 THE PLATT 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 5 THE PLATT sales between February 1995 and July 2016 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 November 2007 sale was for 3% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 3% above the HPI over time, until the July 2016 sale, which was also at 3% above the HPI.
