1 CLIFTON CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Castle Point local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 1 CLIFTON CLOSE sales from November 2007 and May 2014 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 November 2007 sale was for 9% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 9% above the HPI over time, until the May 2014 sale, where it rises to 24% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 24% above the HPI.

What might 1 CLIFTON CLOSE be worth now?

1 CLIFTON CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £436,852.

This is based on house price inflation of 77.6%, between May 2014 and December 2024, for semi-detached houses, in the Castle Point local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 77.6% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 1 CLIFTON CLOSE of £246,000 on 13th May 2014. For the value to have increased from £246,000 to £436,852 over the nine years and five months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 1 CLIFTON CLOSE has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the Castle Point local authority area.
• The May 2014 sale price of £246,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
