COBDEN HOUSE 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 COBDEN HOUSE sales from March 1998 and July 2022 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 1998 sale was for 49% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 49% above the HPI over time, until the July 2022 sale, where it falls to 36% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 36% above the HPI.
