48 ROYSTON ROAD Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Maidstone local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 48 ROYSTON ROAD sales between June 1998 and May 2008 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 July 2002 sale was for 14% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 14% below the HPI over time, until the May 2008 sale, where it falls to 22% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 22% below the HPI.

What might 48 ROYSTON ROAD be worth now?
