9 KINGS ACRE 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 9 KINGS ACRE sales between September 1998 and April 2018 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 2001 sale was for 21% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 21% below the HPI over time, until the April 2018 sale, where it falls to 29% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 29% below the HPI.
