18 DEIRDRE CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Basildon local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 18 DEIRDRE CLOSE sales from June 2007 and July 2015 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 June 2007 sale was for 40% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 40% below the HPI over time, until the July 2015 sale, where it rises to 26% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 26% below the HPI.

What might 18 DEIRDRE CLOSE be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 50.8%, between July 2015 and December 2024, for 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 50.8% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 18 DEIRDRE CLOSE of £320,000 on 10th July 2015. For the value to have increased from £320,000 to £482,719 over the eight years and seven months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:
