10 THE FINCHES Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Swale local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 10 THE FINCHES sales from April 1995 and September 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 April 1995 sale was for 56% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 56% above the HPI over time, until the September 2020 sale, where it falls to 30% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 30% above the HPI.

What might 10 THE FINCHES be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 18.2%, between September 2020 and February 2025, for semi-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 18.2% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 10 THE FINCHES of £349,500 on 25th September 2020. For the value to have increased from £349,500 to £413,102 over the five years and seven months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
