22 THE LEY Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Braintree local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 22 THE LEY sales from July 2014 and July 2016 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 July 2014 sale was for 6% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 6% above the HPI over time, until the July 2016 sale, where it rises to 8% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 8% above the HPI.

What might 22 THE LEY be worth now?

22 THE LEY might now be worth an estimated £361,974.

This is based on house price inflation of 28.4%, between July 2016 and February 2025, for semi-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 28.4% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 22 THE LEY of £282,000 on 22nd July 2016. For the value to have increased from £282,000 to £361,974 over the nine years and five months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 22 THE LEY has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the Braintree local authority area.
• The July 2016 sale price of £282,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
