ELMWOOD 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 ELMWOOD sales between November 2007 and December 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 February 2014 sale was for 18% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 18% above the HPI over time, until the December 2023 sale, where it falls to 16% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 16% above the HPI.

What might ELMWOOD be worth now?

ELMWOOD might now be worth an estimated £715,809.

This is based on house price inflation of 2.3%, between December 2023 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 2.3% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for ELMWOOD of £700,000 on 15th December 2023. For the value to have increased from £700,000 to £715,809 over the one year to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of ELMWOOD has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Maidstone local authority area.
• The December 2023 sale price of £700,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of ELMWOOD has not materially changed since December 2023.
