27 FIRS CHASE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Colchester local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 27 FIRS CHASE sales from November 2009 and September 2013 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 November 2009 sale was for 11% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 11% above the HPI over time, until the September 2013 sale, where it rises to 41% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 41% above the HPI.

What might 27 FIRS CHASE be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 73.7%, between September 2013 and December 2024, for semi-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 73.7% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 27 FIRS CHASE of £273,000 on 27th September 2013. For the value to have increased from £273,000 to £474,215 over the ten years and nine months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:
