SONESTA 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 SONESTA sales from November 2019 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 November 2019 sale was for 26% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 26% below the HPI over time, until the October 2023 sale, where it falls to 40% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 40% below the HPI.

What might SONESTA be worth now?

SONESTA might now be worth an estimated £287,430.

This is based on house price inflation of 4.3%, between October 2023 and March 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 4.3% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for SONESTA of £275,500 on 31st October 2023. For the value to have increased from £275,500 to £287,430 over the two years and seven months to March 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of SONESTA has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Swale local authority area.
• The October 2023 sale price of £275,500 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of SONESTA has not materially changed since October 2023.
