12 DARENT CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Wealden local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 12 DARENT CLOSE sales between August 1998 and September 2021 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 2004 sale was for 9% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 9% below the HPI over time, until the September 2021 sale, where it falls to 17% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 17% below the HPI.

What might 12 DARENT CLOSE be worth now?

12 DARENT CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £510,210.

This is based on house price inflation of 8.6%, between September 2021 and December 2024, for detached houses, in the Wealden local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 8.6% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 12 DARENT CLOSE of £470,000 on 22nd September 2021. For the value to have increased from £470,000 to £510,210 over the two years and nine months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 12 DARENT CLOSE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Wealden local authority area.
• The September 2021 sale price of £470,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
