20 PUFFIN CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Basildon local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The five 20 PUFFIN CLOSE sales between October 2001 and September 2022 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 May 2014 sale was for 29% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 29% below the HPI over time, until the September 2022 sale, where it falls to 37% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 37% below the HPI.

What might 20 PUFFIN CLOSE be worth now?

This is based on house price deflation of 2.8%, between September 2022 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Basildon local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 2.8% deflationary decrease is applied to the most recent sale price for 20 PUFFIN CLOSE of £425,000 on 30th September 2022. For the value to have decreased from £425,000 to £413,061 over the three years and seven months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
