13 THE CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Dover local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The seven 13 THE CLOSE sales between July 1996 and April 2022 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 August 2015 sale was for 7% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 7% below the HPI over time, until the April 2022 sale, where it rises to 14% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 14% above the HPI.

What might 13 THE CLOSE be worth now?

13 THE CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £336,289.

This is based on house price deflation of 3.9%, between April 2022 and April 2026, for semi-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 3.9% deflationary decrease is applied to the most recent sale price for 13 THE CLOSE of £350,000 on 8th April 2022. For the value to have decreased from £350,000 to £336,289 over the four years to April 2026, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 13 THE CLOSE has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the Dover local authority area.
• The April 2022 sale price of £350,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of 13 THE CLOSE has not materially changed since April 2022.
