LYNCOMBE 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 LYNCOMBE sales from October 2006 and June 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 October 2006 sale was for 36% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 36% below the HPI over time, until the June 2021 sale, where it rises to 20% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 20% below the HPI.

What might LYNCOMBE be worth now?

LYNCOMBE might now be worth an estimated £507,543.

This is based on house price inflation of 18%, between June 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 18% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for LYNCOMBE of £430,000 on 11th June 2021. For the value to have increased from £430,000 to £507,543 over the four years and four months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of LYNCOMBE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Maidstone local authority area.
• The June 2021 sale price of £430,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of LYNCOMBE has not materially changed since June 2021.
