3 THE CROFT Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Tonbridge and Malling local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 3 THE CROFT sales between July 1995 and November 2019 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 December 1996 sale was for 5% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 5% above the HPI over time, until the November 2019 sale, where it falls to 11% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 11% below the HPI.

What might 3 THE CROFT be worth now?

3 THE CROFT might now be worth an estimated £376,236.

This is based on house price inflation of 17.6%, between November 2019 and February 2025, for semi-detached houses, in the Tonbridge and Malling local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 17.6% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 3 THE CROFT of £320,000 on 12th November 2019. For the value to have increased from £320,000 to £376,236 over the six years and nine months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 3 THE CROFT has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the Tonbridge and Malling local authority area.
• The November 2019 sale price of £320,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of 3 THE CROFT has not materially changed since November 2019.
