7 BLATCHER CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average terraced house price in the Swale local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 7 BLATCHER CLOSE sales from October 1996 and August 1997 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 1996 sale was for 24% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 24% below the HPI over time, until the August 1997 sale, where it rises to 14% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 14% below the HPI.

What might 7 BLATCHER CLOSE be worth now?

The 452.7% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 7 BLATCHER CLOSE of £38,995 on 8th August 1997. For the value to have increased from £38,995 to £215,530 over the 29 years and three months to May 2026, the following assumptions must hold true:
