FORGE 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 FORGE HOUSE sales from March 2015 and October 2020 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 2015 sale was for 32% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 32% above the HPI over time, until the October 2020 sale, where it falls to 21% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 21% above the HPI.
