ROMNEY 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 ROMNEY COTTAGE sales from November 2009 and July 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 November 2009 sale was for 34% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 34% above the HPI over time, until the July 2013 sale, where it rises to 50% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 50% above the HPI.
