FORGE MEADOW 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 MEADOW sales from January 2007 and December 2022 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 January 2007 sale was for 2% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 2% below the HPI over time, until the December 2022 sale, where it falls to 17% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 17% below the HPI.
