18 CURLEW CROFT Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Colchester local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 18 CURLEW CROFT sales between August 2000 and January 2017 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 November 2007 sale was for 22% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 22% below the HPI over time, until the January 2017 sale, where it falls to 25% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 25% below the HPI.

What might 18 CURLEW CROFT be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 26.9%, between January 2017 and February 2025, for semi-detached houses, in the Colchester local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 26.9% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 18 CURLEW CROFT of £195,000 on 9th January 2017. For the value to have increased from £195,000 to £247,533 over the seven years and eleven months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
