PIPPINS 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 PIPPINS sales from November 1998 and May 2002 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 November 1998 sale was for 53% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 53% above the HPI over time, until the May 2002 sale, where it falls to 45% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 45% above the HPI.

What might PIPPINS be worth now?

PIPPINS might now be worth an estimated £689,320.

This is based on house price inflation of 181.4%, between May 2002 and February 2025, 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 181.4% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for PIPPINS of £245,000 on 24th May 2002. For the value to have increased from £245,000 to £689,320 over the 23 years and three months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of PIPPINS has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Swale local authority area.
• The May 2002 sale price of £245,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of PIPPINS has not materially changed since May 2002.
