3 SWALLOW FIELD Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Braintree local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 3 SWALLOW FIELD sales between September 1996 and April 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 November 2018 sale was for 2% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 2% above the HPI over time, until the April 2024 sale, where it falls to 1% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 1% above the HPI.

What might 3 SWALLOW FIELD be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 4.9%, between April 2024 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Braintree local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 4.9% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 3 SWALLOW FIELD of £555,000 on 19th April 2024. For the value to have increased from £555,000 to £582,197 over the one year and two months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
