SUNNYHURST 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 SUNNYHURST sales between March 2009 and July 2022 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 2014 sale was for 14% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 14% below the HPI over time, until the July 2022 sale, where it rises to 11% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 11% above the HPI.

What might SUNNYHURST be worth now?

SUNNYHURST might now be worth an estimated £689,388.

This is based on house price inflation of 2.1%, between July 2022 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 2.1% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for SUNNYHURST of £675,000 on 28th July 2022. For the value to have increased from £675,000 to £689,388 over the one year and seven months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of SUNNYHURST has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Maidstone local authority area.
• The July 2022 sale price of £675,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of SUNNYHURST has not materially changed since July 2022.
