27 EMPRESS AVENUE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Colchester local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 27 EMPRESS AVENUE sales between December 1999 and November 2014 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 September 2008 sale was for 105% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 105% above the HPI over time, until the November 2014 sale, where it falls to 103% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 103% above the HPI.

What might 27 EMPRESS AVENUE be worth now?

27 EMPRESS AVENUE might now be worth an estimated £1,018,201.

This is based on house price inflation of 49.7%, between November 2014 and July 2025, for detached houses, in the Colchester local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 49.7% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 27 EMPRESS AVENUE of £680,000 on 19th November 2014. For the value to have increased from £680,000 to £1,018,201 over the eleven years and four months to July 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

  • The value of 27 EMPRESS AVENUE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Colchester local authority area.
  • The November 2014 sale price of £680,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
  • The size, condition, and specification of 27 EMPRESS AVENUE has not materially changed since November 2014.
Disclaimer: Please note that this is a theoretical estimate based on assumptions which may or may not be correct. It should not be relied on for any purpose.
