159 PUMP LANE 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 159 PUMP LANE sales from December 1996 and March 2010 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 December 1996 sale was for 3% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 3% above the HPI over time, until the March 2010 sale, where it falls to 1% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 1% below the HPI.

What might 159 PUMP LANE be worth now?

159 PUMP LANE might now be worth an estimated £349,389.

This is based on house price inflation of 106.9%, between March 2010 and March 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 106.9% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 159 PUMP LANE of £168,888 on 19th March 2010. For the value to have increased from £168,888 to £349,389 over the fifteen years to March 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 159 PUMP LANE has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the Medway local authority area.
