THE HEIGHTS Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Dover local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two THE HEIGHTS sales from July 2017 and May 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 July 2017 sale was for 100% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 100% below the HPI over time, until the May 2021 sale, where it rises to 8% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 8% below the HPI.

What might THE HEIGHTS be worth now?

THE HEIGHTS might now be worth an estimated £465,546.

This is based on house price inflation of 10.8%, between May 2021 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Dover local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 10.8% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for THE HEIGHTS of £420,000 on 28th May 2021. For the value to have increased from £420,000 to £465,546 over the four years and three months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of THE HEIGHTS has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Dover local authority area.
• The May 2021 sale price of £420,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of THE HEIGHTS has not materially changed since May 2021.
