8 OSPREY COURT Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Folkestone and Hythe local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 8 OSPREY COURT sales from May 2008 and January 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 May 2008 sale was for 10% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 10% above the HPI over time, until the January 2016 sale, where it rises to 31% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 31% above the HPI.

What might 8 OSPREY COURT be worth now?

The 47.1% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 8 OSPREY COURT of £470,000 on 22nd January 2016. For the value to have increased from £470,000 to £691,540 over the eight years and eleven months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
