12 BRACKEN LEA Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Medway local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 12 BRACKEN LEA sales from April 2007 and December 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 2007 sale was for 11% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 11% above the HPI over time, until the December 2020 sale, where it falls to 1% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 1% above the HPI.

What might 12 BRACKEN LEA be worth now?

12 BRACKEN LEA might now be worth an estimated £350,414.

This is based on house price inflation of 18.8%, between December 2020 and December 2024, for semi-detached houses, in the Medway local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 18.8% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 12 BRACKEN LEA of £295,000 on 4th December 2020. For the value to have increased from £295,000 to £350,414 over the four years to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 12 BRACKEN LEA has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the Medway local authority area.
• The December 2020 sale price of £295,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
