CANDLEFORD Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Bexley local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two CANDLEFORD sales from February 2001 and July 2019 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 February 2001 sale was for 48% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 48% above the HPI over time, until the July 2019 sale, where it falls to 18% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 18% above the HPI.

What might CANDLEFORD be worth now?

CANDLEFORD might now be worth an estimated £844,311.

This is based on house price inflation of 20.1%, between July 2019 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Bexley local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 20.1% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for CANDLEFORD of £703,000 on 19th July 2019. For the value to have increased from £703,000 to £844,311 over the six years and five months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of CANDLEFORD has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Bexley local authority area.
• The July 2019 sale price of £703,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of CANDLEFORD has not materially changed since July 2019.
