The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Maidstone local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The five 8 THE ORCHARD sales between December 1997 and January 2017 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 March 2010 sale was for 107% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 107% above the HPI over time, until the January 2017 sale, where it falls to 77% above the HPI.
