17 BARLOW CLOSE 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 four 17 BARLOW CLOSE sales between June 1996 and May 2014 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 April 2006 sale was for 14% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 14% above the HPI over time, until the May 2014 sale, where it falls to 4% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 4% above the HPI.

What might 17 BARLOW CLOSE be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 80.6%, between May 2014 and February 2025, 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 80.6% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 17 BARLOW CLOSE of £310,000 on 23rd May 2014. For the value to have increased from £310,000 to £559,714 over the eleven years and three months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 17 BARLOW CLOSE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Medway local authority area.
• The May 2014 sale price of £310,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
