Finwell Road Rainham 1967 - Rainham, Kent House Prices in the 1960s
The new Tilbury estate off Station Road including Finwell Road in Rainham was built in the late 1960s and my parents moved there in 1967. This is the photo of the house shortly after they moved in.
The purchase price of a new bungalow in 1967 was £4150. The same house now is estimated by Zoopla to be worth £407,000!
The mortgage on the bungalow was £3500 so it was an 85% Loan to Value in 1967. The completion statement for the purchase is below showing all the items that were added to the final bill including land registry fee on transfer, land registry fee on mortgage, search fees and filing particulars with Inland Revenue
