2 SYCAMORE GROVE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Braintree local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 2 SYCAMORE GROVE sales from February 2004 and May 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 February 2004 sale was for 32% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 32% below the HPI over time, until the May 2014 sale, where it rises to 12% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 12% below the HPI.

What might 2 SYCAMORE GROVE be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 63.3%, between May 2014 and December 2024, for detached houses, in the Braintree local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 63.3% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 2 SYCAMORE GROVE of £310,000 on 14th May 2014. For the value to have increased from £310,000 to £506,192 over the nine years and five months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 2 SYCAMORE GROVE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Braintree local authority area.
• The May 2014 sale price of £310,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
