FORGE HOUSE 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 FORGE HOUSE sales from April 2010 and February 2021 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 April 2010 sale was for 204% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 204% above the HPI over time, until the February 2021 sale, where it falls to 138% above the HPI.
