THE GRANGE 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 THE GRANGE sales between September 2000 and December 2023 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 2002 sale was for 155% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 155% above the HPI over time, until the December 2023 sale, where it falls to 127% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 127% above the HPI.
