15 BARNCOMBE CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Castle Point local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 15 BARNCOMBE CLOSE sales between August 1998 and August 2016 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 2002 sale was for 16% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 16% above the HPI over time, until the August 2016 sale, where it falls to 14% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 14% above the HPI.

What might 15 BARNCOMBE CLOSE be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 35.2%, between August 2016 and December 2024, for semi-detached houses, in the Castle Point local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 35.2% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 15 BARNCOMBE CLOSE of £297,500 on 15th August 2016. For the value to have increased from £297,500 to £402,305 over the seven years and eight months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:
