MAGNOLIA 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 MAGNOLIA sales from May 2007 and May 2015 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 May 2007 sale was for 15% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 15% below the HPI over time, until the May 2015 sale, where it rises to 11% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 11% below the HPI.

What might MAGNOLIA be worth now?

MAGNOLIA might now be worth an estimated £427,439.

This is based on house price inflation of 59.5%, between May 2015 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 59.5% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for MAGNOLIA of £268,000 on 8th May 2015. For the value to have increased from £268,000 to £427,439 over the eight years and five months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of MAGNOLIA has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Swale local authority area.
• The May 2015 sale price of £268,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of MAGNOLIA has not materially changed since May 2015.
