BETHANY 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 BETHANY sales between March 1999 and January 2023 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 December 2020 sale was for 16% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 16% below the HPI over time, until the January 2023 sale, where it falls to 43% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 43% below the HPI.

What might BETHANY be worth now?

BETHANY might now be worth an estimated £358,740.

This is based on house price inflation of 2.5%, between January 2023 and February 2025, 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 2.5% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for BETHANY of £350,000 on 27th January 2023. For the value to have increased from £350,000 to £358,740 over the one year and eleven months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of BETHANY has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Maidstone local authority area.
• The January 2023 sale price of £350,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of BETHANY has not materially changed since January 2023.
