CANTEMERLE 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 two CANTEMERLE sales from June 2008 and October 2009 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 2008 sale was for 29% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 29% below the HPI over time, until the October 2009 sale, where it rises to 5% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 5% below the HPI.

What might CANTEMERLE be worth now?

CANTEMERLE might now be worth an estimated £586,646.

This is based on house price inflation of 77.8%, between October 2009 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 77.8% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for CANTEMERLE of £330,000 on 30th October 2009. For the value to have increased from £330,000 to £586,646 over the fourteen years and ten months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of CANTEMERLE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Maidstone local authority area.
• The October 2009 sale price of £330,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of CANTEMERLE has not materially changed since October 2009.
