How this area has changed
Typical prices for semi-detached houses, now and in years gone by. The twelve months to September 2026 against the same twelve months back then.
| Area | Now | 5 years ago | 10 years ago | 15 years ago | 20 years ago |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Romney Close | – | Not enough sales | Not enough sales | Not enough sales | Not enough sales |
| Postcode sector CT7 9 | £324,500 | £310,000 +5% since | £251,000 +29% since | £186,000 +74% since | £183,500 +77% since |

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.
How homes change hands in CT7 9, over the last five years (800 sales):
- What sells: 32% detached, 27% flats, 25% semi-detached, 13% terraced, 4% other.
- 28% sold leasehold.
- 149 sales in the last twelve months, against 254 in the same twelve months five years ago.
