FIRBANK Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Dover local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two FIRBANK sales from September 2004 and August 2023 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 September 2004 sale was for 79% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 79% above the HPI over time, until the August 2023 sale, where it falls to 44% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 44% above the HPI.

What might FIRBANK be worth now?

FIRBANK might now be worth an estimated £724,834.

This is based on house price deflation of 4%, between August 2023 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Dover local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 4% deflationary decrease is applied to the most recent sale price for FIRBANK of £755,000 on 31st August 2023. For the value to have decreased from £755,000 to £724,834 over the two years and six months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of FIRBANK has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Dover local authority area.
• The August 2023 sale price of £755,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of FIRBANK has not materially changed since August 2023.
