53 LAPWING 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 three 53 LAPWING ROAD sales between December 1995 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 December 1997 sale was for 45% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 45% below the HPI over time, until the April 2006 sale, where it rises to 43% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 43% below the HPI.

What might 53 LAPWING ROAD be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 111.8%, between April 2006 and February 2025, 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 111.8% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 53 LAPWING ROAD of £145,000 on 13th April 2006. For the value to have increased from £145,000 to £307,054 over the nineteen years and two months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
