CATERWAYS 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 CATERWAYS sales from October 1998 and September 2013 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 1998 sale was for 52% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 52% below the HPI over time, until the September 2013 sale, where it rises to 28% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 28% below the HPI.

What might CATERWAYS be worth now?

CATERWAYS might now be worth an estimated £452,434.

This is based on house price inflation of 64.5%, between September 2013 and August 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 64.5% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for CATERWAYS of £275,000 on 2nd September 2013. For the value to have increased from £275,000 to £452,434 over the twelve years and one month to August 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of CATERWAYS has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Maidstone local authority area.
• The September 2013 sale price of £275,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of CATERWAYS has not materially changed since September 2013.
