20 PEARL DRIVE 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 three 20 PEARL DRIVE sales between May 2003 and June 2007 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 2005 sale was for 1% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 1% above the HPI over time, until the June 2007 sale, where it rises to 5% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 5% above the HPI.

What might 20 PEARL DRIVE be worth now?

20 PEARL DRIVE might now be worth an estimated £605,494.

This is based on house price inflation of 78.1%, between June 2007 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 78.1% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 20 PEARL DRIVE of £340,000 on 4th June 2007. For the value to have increased from £340,000 to £605,494 over the sixteen years and six months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 20 PEARL DRIVE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Braintree local authority area.
• The June 2007 sale price of £340,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of 20 PEARL DRIVE has not materially changed since June 2007.
