6 DOWNLANDS 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 four 6 DOWNLANDS sales between September 1997 and June 2015 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 June 2010 sale was for 37% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 37% above the HPI over time, until the June 2015 sale, where it falls to 20% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 20% above the HPI.

What might 6 DOWNLANDS be worth now?

6 DOWNLANDS might now be worth an estimated £744,273.

This is based on house price inflation of 37.8%, between June 2015 and December 2024, for 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 37.8% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 6 DOWNLANDS of £540,000 on 3rd June 2015. For the value to have increased from £540,000 to £744,273 over the eight years and six months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 6 DOWNLANDS has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Maidstone local authority area.
• The June 2015 sale price of £540,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of 6 DOWNLANDS has not materially changed since June 2015.
