The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Thurrock local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 255 RECTORY ROAD sales between July 2000 and August 2010 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 April 2004 sale roughly matched the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks roughly in line with the HPI over time, until the August 2010 sale, where it rises to 16% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 16% above the HPI.
255 RECTORY ROAD might now be worth an estimated £469,096.
This is based on house price inflation of 108.5%, between August 2010 and February 2025, for semi-detached houses, in the Thurrock local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).
The 108.5% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 255 RECTORY ROAD of £225,000 on 9th August 2010. For the value to have increased from £225,000 to £469,096 over the fifteen years and six months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
