22 THE CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Dartford local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 22 THE CLOSE sales from April 2004 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 April 2004 sale was for 33% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 33% above the HPI over time, until the March 2010 sale, where it rises to 76% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 76% above the HPI.

What might 22 THE CLOSE be worth now?

22 THE CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £1,257,609.

This is based on house price inflation of 99.6%, between March 2010 and December 2024, for detached houses, in the Dartford local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 99.6% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 22 THE CLOSE of £630,000 on 19th March 2010. For the value to have increased from £630,000 to £1,257,609 over the thirteen years and three months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 22 THE CLOSE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Dartford local authority area.
• The March 2010 sale price of £630,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of 22 THE CLOSE has not materially changed since March 2010.
