38 MERSEA CRESCENT Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Basildon local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 38 MERSEA CRESCENT sales from June 2001 and December 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 June 2001 sale was for 29% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 29% below the HPI over time, until the December 2014 sale, where it falls to 39% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 39% below the HPI.

What might 38 MERSEA CRESCENT be worth now?

38 MERSEA CRESCENT might now be worth an estimated £401,677.

This is based on house price inflation of 60.7%, between December 2014 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Basildon local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 60.7% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 38 MERSEA CRESCENT of £249,999 on 15th December 2014. For the value to have increased from £249,999 to £401,677 over the eleven years and ten months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 38 MERSEA CRESCENT has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Basildon local authority area.
• The December 2014 sale price of £249,999 represented a fair market value for the property.
