26 RIDGEWAY CLIFF Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Canterbury local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four 26 RIDGEWAY CLIFF sales between February 1997 and April 2006 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 2005 sale was for 23% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 23% below the HPI over time, until the April 2006 sale, where it falls to 25% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 25% below the HPI.

What might 26 RIDGEWAY CLIFF be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 103.8%, between April 2006 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Canterbury local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 103.8% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 26 RIDGEWAY CLIFF of £210,000 on 6th April 2006. For the value to have increased from £210,000 to £427,963 over the nineteen years and two months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 26 RIDGEWAY CLIFF has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Canterbury local authority area.
• The April 2006 sale price of £210,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
