5 ROWAN CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Dover local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 5 ROWAN CLOSE sales between April 2007 and November 2018 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 June 2016 sale was for 7% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 7% below the HPI over time, until the November 2018 sale, where it rises to 5% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 5% below the HPI.

What might 5 ROWAN CLOSE be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 13.7%, between November 2018 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Dover local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 13.7% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 5 ROWAN CLOSE of £422,500 on 2nd November 2018. For the value to have increased from £422,500 to £480,402 over the seven years and nine months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
