27 MERLIN ROAD Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Havering local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 27 MERLIN ROAD sales from July 1999 and December 2024 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 July 1999 sale was for 7% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 7% above the HPI over time, until the December 2024 sale, where it falls to 6% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 6% below the HPI.

What might 27 MERLIN ROAD be worth now?

27 MERLIN ROAD might now be worth an estimated £773,294.

This is based on house price inflation of 2.4%, between December 2024 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Havering local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 2.4% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 27 MERLIN ROAD of £755,000 on 16th December 2024. For the value to have increased from £755,000 to £773,294 over the one year and ten months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
