101 MELVILLE DRIVE 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 three 101 MELVILLE DRIVE sales between August 1999 and May 2008 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 May 2002 sale was for 25% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 25% below the HPI over time, until the May 2008 sale, where it falls to 27% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 27% below the HPI.

What might 101 MELVILLE DRIVE be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 85.1%, between May 2008 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 85.1% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 101 MELVILLE DRIVE of £260,000 on 9th May 2008. For the value to have increased from £260,000 to £481,281 over the seventeen years and three months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
