The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Maidstone local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 8 AMHERST CLOSE sales from June 2005 and October 2011 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 2005 sale was for 16% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 16% below the HPI over time, until the October 2011 sale, which was also at 16% below the HPI.
