12 LONGLEY ROAD Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Medway local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The six 12 LONGLEY ROAD sales between March 1998 and February 2022 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 October 2013 sale was for 29% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 29% below the HPI over time, until the February 2022 sale, where it falls to 32% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 32% below the HPI.

What might 12 LONGLEY ROAD be worth now?

12 LONGLEY ROAD might now be worth an estimated £359,601.

This is based on house price inflation of 5.1%, between February 2022 and December 2024, for 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 5.1% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 12 LONGLEY ROAD of £342,000 on 28th February 2022. For the value to have increased from £342,000 to £359,601 over the one year and two months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 12 LONGLEY ROAD has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Medway local authority area.
• The February 2022 sale price of £342,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
