1A CHAPLIN CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Chelmsford local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 1A CHAPLIN CLOSE sales from September 2004 and January 2010 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 September 2004 sale was for 13% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 13% above the HPI over time, until the January 2010 sale, where it falls to 35% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 35% below the HPI.

What might 1A CHAPLIN CLOSE be worth now?

1A CHAPLIN CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £433,554.

The 86.9% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 1A CHAPLIN CLOSE of £232,000 on 29th January 2010. For the value to have increased from £232,000 to £433,554 over the thirteen years and one month to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:
