18 BLACKSMITH DRIVE 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 three 18 BLACKSMITH DRIVE sales between August 1997 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 February 2016 sale was for 14% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 14% above the HPI over time, until the October 2020 sale, where it falls to 7% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 7% above the HPI.

What might 18 BLACKSMITH DRIVE be worth now?
