KIMBERWORTH 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 KIMBERWORTH sales from December 2001 and October 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 December 2001 sale was for 19% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 19% below the HPI over time, until the October 2023 sale, where it rises to 14% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 14% above the HPI.

What might KIMBERWORTH be worth now?

KIMBERWORTH might now be worth an estimated £545,910.

This is based on house price inflation of 5%, between October 2023 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 5% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for KIMBERWORTH of £520,000 on 25th October 2023. For the value to have increased from £520,000 to £545,910 over the ten months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of KIMBERWORTH has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Swale local authority area.
• The October 2023 sale price of £520,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of KIMBERWORTH has not materially changed since October 2023.
