148 WATLING STREET 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 148 WATLING STREET sales from May 2006 and March 2015 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 May 2006 sale was for 45% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 45% above the HPI over time, until the March 2015 sale, where it rises to 81% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 81% above the HPI.

What might 148 WATLING STREET be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 68.6%, between March 2015 and February 2025, 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 68.6% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 148 WATLING STREET of £378,000 on 19th March 2015. For the value to have increased from £378,000 to £637,430 over the ten years and one month to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
