7 HOLMES CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Medway local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 7 HOLMES CLOSE sales from November 1998 and April 2005 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 November 1998 sale was for 17% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 17% above the HPI over time, until the April 2005 sale, where it falls to 6% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 6% above the HPI.

What might 7 HOLMES CLOSE be worth now?

7 HOLMES CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £374,370.

This is based on house price inflation of 110.3%, between April 2005 and February 2025, for semi-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 110.3% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 7 HOLMES CLOSE of £178,000 on 29th April 2005. For the value to have increased from £178,000 to £374,370 over the twenty years and two months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 7 HOLMES CLOSE has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the Medway local authority area.
• The April 2005 sale price of £178,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
