1A BLATCHER CLOSE 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 five 1A BLATCHER CLOSE sales between May 2003 and December 2016 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 2012 sale was for 46% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 46% below the HPI over time, until the December 2016 sale, where it rises to 44% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 44% below the HPI.

What might 1A BLATCHER CLOSE be worth now?

1A BLATCHER CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £266,069.

This is based on house price inflation of 33%, between December 2016 and February 2025, 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 33% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 1A BLATCHER CLOSE of £200,000 on 21st December 2016. For the value to have increased from £200,000 to £266,069 over the nine years and ten months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 1A BLATCHER CLOSE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Swale local authority area.
• The December 2016 sale price of £200,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of 1A BLATCHER CLOSE has not materially changed since December 2016.
