18 ELMSTEAD ROAD Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Colchester local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 18 ELMSTEAD ROAD sales from August 2004 and May 2006 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 August 2004 sale was for 28% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 28% above the HPI over time, until the May 2006 sale, where it rises to 35% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 35% above the HPI.

What might 18 ELMSTEAD ROAD be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 81.3%, between May 2006 and December 2024, for 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 81.3% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 18 ELMSTEAD ROAD of £377,500 on 23rd May 2006. For the value to have increased from £377,500 to £684,320 over the seventeen years and five months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:
