PEAR TREE COTTAGE 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 PEAR TREE COTTAGE sales from November 2006 and March 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 November 2006 sale was for 23% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 23% below the HPI over time, until the March 2020 sale, where it falls to 29% below the HPI.
