13 MOUNT CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Basildon local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 13 MOUNT CLOSE sales from July 2013 and October 2019 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 2013 sale was for 13% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 13% below the HPI over time, until the October 2019 sale, where it rises to 1% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 1% below the HPI.

What might 13 MOUNT CLOSE be worth now?

13 MOUNT CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £412,176.

This is based on house price inflation of 22.7%, between October 2019 and February 2025, for semi-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 22.7% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 13 MOUNT CLOSE of £336,000 on 28th October 2019. For the value to have increased from £336,000 to £412,176 over the six years and eight months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 13 MOUNT CLOSE has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the Basildon local authority area.
• The October 2019 sale price of £336,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
