26 FOUNTAIN LANE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Rochford local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 26 FOUNTAIN LANE sales from December 1999 and April 2018 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 December 1999 sale was for 71% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 71% above the HPI over time, until the April 2018 sale, where it falls to 27% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 27% above the HPI.

What might 26 FOUNTAIN LANE be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 17.8%, between April 2018 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Rochford local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 17.8% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 26 FOUNTAIN LANE of £670,000 on 24th April 2018. For the value to have increased from £670,000 to £789,398 over the seven years and two months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 26 FOUNTAIN LANE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Rochford local authority area.
• The April 2018 sale price of £670,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
