The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Southend-on-Sea local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 12 LEIGHWOOD AVENUE sales from January 2013 and October 2020 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 January 2013 sale was for 8% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 8% below the HPI over time, until the October 2020 sale, where it rises to 1% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 1% above the HPI.
12 LEIGHWOOD AVENUE might now be worth an estimated £415,816.
This is based on house price inflation of 12.4%, between October 2020 and December 2024, for semi-detached houses, in the Southend-on-Sea local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).
The 12.4% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 12 LEIGHWOOD AVENUE of £370,000 on 27th October 2020. For the value to have increased from £370,000 to £415,816 over the three years and ten months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:
