17 WATSON CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

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 three 17 WATSON CLOSE sales between March 1998 and June 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 2004 sale was for 21% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 21% below the HPI over time, until the June 2013 sale, where it rises to 19% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 19% below the HPI.

What might 17 WATSON CLOSE be worth now?

17 WATSON CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £334,012.

This is based on house price inflation of 90.9%, between June 2013 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 90.9% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 17 WATSON CLOSE of £175,000 on 14th June 2013. For the value to have increased from £175,000 to £334,012 over the ten years and six months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:
