257C LINK ROAD Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Castle Point local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 257C LINK ROAD sales from January 2014 and April 2020 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 2014 sale was for 22% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 22% below the HPI over time, until the April 2020 sale, where it falls to 27% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 27% below the HPI.

What might 257C LINK ROAD be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 14.3%, between April 2020 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Castle Point local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 14.3% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 257C LINK ROAD of £295,000 on 9th April 2020. For the value to have increased from £295,000 to £337,234 over the five years and two months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
