1 FIR TREE CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Thurrock local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 1 FIR TREE CLOSE sales from August 2012 and June 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 August 2012 sale was for 2% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 2% below the HPI over time, until the June 2014 sale, where it rises to 1% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 1% above the HPI.

What might 1 FIR TREE CLOSE be worth now?

1 FIR TREE CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £403,033.

This is based on house price inflation of 85.3%, between June 2014 and December 2024, for semi-detached houses, in the Thurrock local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 85.3% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 1 FIR TREE CLOSE of £217,500 on 20th June 2014. For the value to have increased from £217,500 to £403,033 over the nine years and six months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 1 FIR TREE CLOSE has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the Thurrock local authority area.
• The June 2014 sale price of £217,500 represented a fair market value for the property.
