1 GLOVER CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Swale local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four 1 GLOVER CLOSE sales between March 2000 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 June 2006 sale was for 27% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 27% below the HPI over time, until the July 2013 sale, where it falls to 31% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 31% below the HPI.

What might 1 GLOVER CLOSE be worth now?

1 GLOVER CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £330,125.

This is based on house price inflation of 88.6%, between July 2013 and December 2024, for detached houses, in the Swale local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 88.6% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 1 GLOVER CLOSE of £175,000 on 22nd July 2013. For the value to have increased from £175,000 to £330,125 over the ten years and seven months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 1 GLOVER CLOSE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Swale local authority area.
• The July 2013 sale price of £175,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
