32 THE CROSS 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 three 32 THE CROSS sales between December 1997 and August 2022 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 May 2006 sale roughly matched the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks roughly in line with the HPI over time, until the August 2022 sale, where it falls to 15% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 15% below the HPI.

What might 32 THE CROSS be worth now?

32 THE CROSS might now be worth an estimated £280,536.

This is based on house price deflation of 0.5%, between August 2022 and February 2025, 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 0.5% deflationary decrease is applied to the most recent sale price for 32 THE CROSS of £282,000 on 19th August 2022. For the value to have decreased from £282,000 to £280,536 over the three years and six months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 32 THE CROSS has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the Colchester local authority area.
• The August 2022 sale price of £282,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
