42 WATCHGATE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Dartford local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 42 WATCHGATE sales between March 2015 and April 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 June 2019 sale was for 17% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 17% below the HPI over time, until the April 2021 sale, where it falls to 22% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 22% below the HPI.

What might 42 WATCHGATE be worth now?

42 WATCHGATE might now be worth an estimated £322,014.

This is based on house price inflation of 7.3%, between April 2021 and May 2026, for semi-detached houses, in the Dartford local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 7.3% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 42 WATCHGATE of £300,000 on 19th April 2021. For the value to have increased from £300,000 to £322,014 over the four years and eleven months to May 2026, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 42 WATCHGATE has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the Dartford local authority area.
• The April 2021 sale price of £300,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of 42 WATCHGATE has not materially changed since April 2021.
