1A AMHERST 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 four 1A AMHERST ROAD sales between March 1996 and December 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 March 2012 sale was for 47% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 47% below the HPI over time, until the December 2022 sale, where it falls to 53% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 53% below the HPI.

This is based on house price deflation of 0.7%, between December 2022 and March 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 0.7% deflationary decrease is applied to the most recent sale price for 1A AMHERST ROAD of £255,000 on 9th December 2022. For the value to have decreased from £255,000 to £253,315 over the three years and nine months to March 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
