KENTON 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 KENTON sales between July 2011 and May 2015 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 May 2014 sale was for 53% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 53% above the HPI over time, until the May 2015 sale, where it falls to 45% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 45% above the HPI.
