RUSTLINGS 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 RUSTLINGS sales between September 1999 and October 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 July 2009 sale was for 29% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 29% above the HPI over time, until the October 2021 sale, where it falls to 15% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 15% above the HPI.
