7 KESTEVEN CLOSE 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 six 7 KESTEVEN CLOSE sales between May 1998 and November 2020 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 2013 sale was for 1% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 1% above the HPI over time, until the November 2020 sale, where it falls to 6% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 6% below the HPI.

What might 7 KESTEVEN CLOSE be worth now?

The 18.7% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 7 KESTEVEN CLOSE of £425,000 on 23rd November 2020. For the value to have increased from £425,000 to £504,579 over the five years and nine months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
