TEPOLY Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Gravesham local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two TEPOLY sales from April 2019 and June 2021 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 April 2019 sale was for 8% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 8% below the HPI over time, until the June 2021 sale, where it rises to 12% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 12% above the HPI.

What might TEPOLY be worth now?

TEPOLY might now be worth an estimated £708,684.

This is based on house price inflation of 12.5%, between June 2021 and December 2024, for detached houses, in the Gravesham local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 12.5% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for TEPOLY of £630,000 on 29th June 2021. For the value to have increased from £630,000 to £708,684 over the two years and six months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of TEPOLY has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Gravesham local authority area.
• The June 2021 sale price of £630,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of TEPOLY has not materially changed since June 2021.
