CRANBROOK 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 three CRANBROOK sales between November 1997 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 October 1999 sale was for 8% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 8% above the HPI over time, until the February 2021 sale, where it falls to 16% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 16% below the HPI.

What might CRANBROOK be worth now?

CRANBROOK might now be worth an estimated £449,931.

This is based on house price inflation of 15.4%, between February 2021 and December 2024, for detached houses, in the Folkestone and Hythe local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 15.4% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for CRANBROOK of £389,950 on 11th February 2021. For the value to have increased from £389,950 to £449,931 over the two years and two months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of CRANBROOK has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Folkestone and Hythe local authority area.
• The February 2021 sale price of £389,950 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of CRANBROOK has not materially changed since February 2021.
