CORNER COTTAGE 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 four CORNER COTTAGE sales between May 1998 and March 2021 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 April 2013 sale was for 27% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 27% below the HPI over time, until the March 2021 sale, where it falls to 33% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 33% below the HPI.

What might CORNER COTTAGE be worth now?

CORNER COTTAGE might now be worth an estimated £425,880.

This is based on house price inflation of 20%, between March 2021 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 20% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for CORNER COTTAGE of £355,000 on 18th March 2021. For the value to have increased from £355,000 to £425,880 over the four years and one month to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of CORNER COTTAGE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Maidstone local authority area.
• The March 2021 sale price of £355,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of CORNER COTTAGE has not materially changed since March 2021.
