YEW TREE 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 four YEW TREE COTTAGE sales between February 1999 and March 2019 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 June 2004 sale was for 1% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 1% above the HPI over time, until the March 2019 sale, where it falls to 23% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 23% below the HPI.
