MYRTLE VILLA Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Medway local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two MYRTLE VILLA sales from August 1997 and August 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 August 1997 sale was for 33% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 33% above the HPI over time, until the August 2003 sale, where it rises to 43% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 43% above the HPI.

What might MYRTLE VILLA be worth now?

MYRTLE VILLA might now be worth an estimated £495,162.

This is based on house price inflation of 138.6%, between August 2003 and June 2025, for semi-detached 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 138.6% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for MYRTLE VILLA of £207,500 on 11th August 2003. For the value to have increased from £207,500 to £495,162 over the 22 years and two months to June 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of MYRTLE VILLA has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the Medway local authority area.
• The August 2003 sale price of £207,500 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of MYRTLE VILLA has not materially changed since August 2003.
