9 THE MEWS Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Swale local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 9 THE MEWS sales from January 2016 and January 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 January 2016 sale was for 20% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 20% below the HPI over time, until the January 2021 sale, where it falls to 24% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 24% below the HPI.

What might 9 THE MEWS be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 12.8%, between January 2021 and December 2024, for detached houses, in the Swale local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 12.8% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 9 THE MEWS of £322,000 on 15th January 2021. For the value to have increased from £322,000 to £363,075 over the two years and one month to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:
