2 ELM CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Epping Forest local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 2 ELM CLOSE sales from January 1995 and December 2014 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 January 1995 sale was for 23% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 23% above the HPI over time, until the December 2014 sale, where it falls to 6% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 6% below the HPI.

What might 2 ELM CLOSE be worth now?

2 ELM CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £562,300.

This is based on house price inflation of 51%, between December 2014 and February 2025, for semi-detached houses, in the Epping Forest local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 51% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 2 ELM CLOSE of £372,500 on 18th December 2014. For the value to have increased from £372,500 to £562,300 over the eleven years and ten months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 2 ELM CLOSE has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the Epping Forest local authority area.
• The December 2014 sale price of £372,500 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of 2 ELM CLOSE has not materially changed since December 2014.
