8 HAWKINS 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 four 8 HAWKINS CLOSE sales between July 1999 and February 2021 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 May 2015 sale was for 18% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 18% above the HPI over time, until the February 2021 sale, where it falls to 4% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 4% above the HPI.

What might 8 HAWKINS CLOSE be worth now?

8 HAWKINS CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £362,662.

This is based on house price inflation of 16.6%, between February 2021 and December 2024, 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 16.6% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 8 HAWKINS CLOSE of £311,000 on 24th February 2021. For the value to have increased from £311,000 to £362,662 over the two years and two months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 8 HAWKINS CLOSE has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the Medway local authority area.
• The February 2021 sale price of £311,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
