3 MARR CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Swale local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four 3 MARR CLOSE sales between February 1997 and April 2004 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 March 2002 sale was for 15% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 15% below the HPI over time, until the April 2004 sale, where it rises to 6% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 6% above the HPI.

What might 3 MARR CLOSE be worth now?

3 MARR CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £336,184.

This is based on house price inflation of 114.1%, between April 2004 and February 2025, for semi-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 114.1% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 3 MARR CLOSE of £156,995 on 8th April 2004. For the value to have increased from £156,995 to £336,184 over the 21 years and two months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 3 MARR CLOSE has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the Swale local authority area.
• The April 2004 sale price of £156,995 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of 3 MARR CLOSE has not materially changed since April 2004.
