10 BALFOUR CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Basildon local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 10 BALFOUR CLOSE sales from July 1996 and January 2012 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 July 1996 sale was for 7% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 7% above the HPI over time, until the January 2012 sale, where it falls to 12% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 12% below the HPI.

What might 10 BALFOUR CLOSE be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 92.5%, between January 2012 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Basildon local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 92.5% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 10 BALFOUR CLOSE of £299,995 on 13th January 2012. For the value to have increased from £299,995 to £577,468 over the twelve years and eleven months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
