15 ORCHARD GROVE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Swale local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 15 ORCHARD GROVE sales from September 1996 and February 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 September 1996 sale was for 5% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 5% above the HPI over time, until the February 2015 sale, where it falls to 2% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 2% above the HPI.

What might 15 ORCHARD GROVE be worth now?

15 ORCHARD GROVE might now be worth an estimated £488,033.

This is based on house price inflation of 62.7%, between February 2015 and December 2024, for 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 62.7% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 15 ORCHARD GROVE of £300,000 on 6th February 2015. For the value to have increased from £300,000 to £488,033 over the eight years and two months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 15 ORCHARD GROVE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Swale local authority area.
• The February 2015 sale price of £300,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
