How this area has changed

Typical prices for flats, now and in years gone by. The twelve months to September 2026 against the same twelve months back then.

Area Now 5 years ago10 years ago15 years ago20 years ago
Trinity Crescent – Not enough sales Not enough sales Not enough sales Not enough sales
Postcode sector CT20 2 £207,500 £203,750 +2% since £143,000 +45% since £125,000 +66% since £137,000 +51% since
Shepway – Not enough sales £138,000 £118,500 £122,000

The typical price is the middle sale of the twelve months, not the average, so one very dear or very cheap sale cannot pull it about. Standard sales only. A figure needs at least 15 sales behind it; with fewer, it says so.
