TRANQUIL COTTAGE 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 TRANQUIL COTTAGE sales from January 2017 and October 2020 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 January 2017 sale was for 3% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 3% below the HPI over time, until the October 2020 sale, where it falls to 8% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 8% below the HPI.
