2 SYLVESTRE 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 three 2 SYLVESTRE CLOSE sales between March 1997 and February 2013 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 November 1998 sale was for 14% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 14% above the HPI over time, until the February 2013 sale, which was also at 14% above the HPI.

What might 2 SYLVESTRE CLOSE be worth now?

2 SYLVESTRE CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £605,188.

This is based on house price inflation of 98.4%, between February 2013 and December 2024, 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 98.4% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 2 SYLVESTRE CLOSE of £305,000 on 25th February 2013. For the value to have increased from £305,000 to £605,188 over the ten years and two months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 2 SYLVESTRE CLOSE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Medway local authority area.
• The February 2013 sale price of £305,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
