79 KENT ROAD Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Southampton local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four 79 KENT ROAD sales between August 2000 and February 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 September 2011 sale was for 4% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 4% below the HPI over time, until the February 2016 sale, where it falls to 7% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 7% below the HPI.

What might 79 KENT ROAD be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 38.3%, between February 2016 and February 2025, for semi-detached houses, in the Southampton local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 38.3% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 79 KENT ROAD of £210,000 on 1st February 2016. For the value to have increased from £210,000 to £290,453 over the nine years to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 79 KENT ROAD has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the Southampton local authority area.
