30 ARETHUSA ROAD 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 30 ARETHUSA ROAD sales from October 2009 and July 2016 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 October 2009 sale was for 18% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 18% below the HPI over time, until the July 2016 sale, where it rises to 8% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 8% above the HPI.

What might 30 ARETHUSA ROAD be worth now?

30 ARETHUSA ROAD might now be worth an estimated £577,192.

This is based on house price inflation of 33.5%, between July 2016 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 33.5% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 30 ARETHUSA ROAD of £432,500 on 22nd July 2016. For the value to have increased from £432,500 to £577,192 over the seven years and seven months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 30 ARETHUSA ROAD has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Medway local authority area.
• The July 2016 sale price of £432,500 represented a fair market value for the property.
