15 DURLEY 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 two 15 DURLEY CLOSE sales from July 1997 and August 2013 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 1997 sale was for 13% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 13% above the HPI over time, until the August 2013 sale, where it rises to 27% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 27% above the HPI.

What might 15 DURLEY CLOSE be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 90.9%, between August 2013 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 90.9% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 15 DURLEY CLOSE of £235,000 on 29th August 2013. For the value to have increased from £235,000 to £448,531 over the ten years and eight months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:
