RUSSETT HOUSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Folkestone and Hythe local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two RUSSETT HOUSE sales from May 1996 and May 2013 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 1996 sale was for 3% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 3% above the HPI over time, until the May 2013 sale, where it rises to 56% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 56% above the HPI.

What might RUSSETT HOUSE be worth now?

RUSSETT HOUSE might now be worth an estimated £823,720.

This is based on house price inflation of 83%, between May 2013 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Folkestone and Hythe local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 83% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for RUSSETT HOUSE of £450,000 on 28th May 2013. For the value to have increased from £450,000 to £823,720 over the twelve years and three months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of RUSSETT HOUSE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Folkestone and Hythe local authority area.
• The May 2013 sale price of £450,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of RUSSETT HOUSE has not materially changed since May 2013.
