MALABAR Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Tonbridge and Malling local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three MALABAR sales between November 1995 and May 2016 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 2007 sale was for 36% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 36% above the HPI over time, until the May 2016 sale, where it falls to 7% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 7% above the HPI.

What might MALABAR be worth now?

MALABAR might now be worth an estimated £735,642.

This is based on house price inflation of 29.6%, between May 2016 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Tonbridge and Malling local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 29.6% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for MALABAR of £567,500 on 16th May 2016. For the value to have increased from £567,500 to £735,642 over the nine years and three months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of MALABAR has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Tonbridge and Malling local authority area.
• The May 2016 sale price of £567,500 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of MALABAR has not materially changed since May 2016.
