17 FORGE LANE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average terraced house price in the Maidstone local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The five 17 FORGE LANE sales between February 1996 and October 2024 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 2019 sale was for 69% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 69% above the HPI over time, until the October 2024 sale, where it falls to 59% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 59% above the HPI.

What might 17 FORGE LANE be worth now?
