WEALDEN 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 WEALDEN sales from March 2015 and March 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 March 2015 sale was for 8% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 8% below the HPI over time, until the March 2021 sale, which was also at 8% below the HPI.

What might WEALDEN be worth now?

WEALDEN might now be worth an estimated £581,837.

This is based on house price inflation of 20%, between March 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 20% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for WEALDEN of £485,000 on 8th March 2021. For the value to have increased from £485,000 to £581,837 over the four years and one month to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of WEALDEN has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Maidstone local authority area.
• The March 2021 sale price of £485,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of WEALDEN has not materially changed since March 2021.
