3 DRAYTON 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 two 3 DRAYTON CLOSE sales from August 1998 and July 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 August 1998 sale was for 13% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 13% below the HPI over time, until the July 2006 sale, where it rises to 7% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 7% below the HPI.

What might 3 DRAYTON CLOSE be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 104.5%, between July 2006 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 104.5% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 3 DRAYTON CLOSE of £243,000 on 21st July 2006. For the value to have increased from £243,000 to £496,835 over the seventeen years and seven months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:
