40 CAPEL CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average terraced house price in the Medway local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 40 CAPEL CLOSE sales from October 1998 and March 2003 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 October 1998 sale was for 6% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 6% above the HPI over time, until the March 2003 sale, where it falls to 48% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 48% below the HPI.

What might 40 CAPEL CLOSE be worth now?

40 CAPEL CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £139,893.

This is based on house price inflation of 164.2%, between March 2003 and June 2025, for terraced houses, in the Medway local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 164.2% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 40 CAPEL CLOSE of £52,941 on 14th March 2003. For the value to have increased from £52,941 to £139,893 over the 21 years and nine months to June 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 40 CAPEL CLOSE has moved in line with the HPI for terraced houses in the Medway local authority area.
• The March 2003 sale price of £52,941 represented a fair market value for the property.
