4 RUFFLES CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Rochford local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 4 RUFFLES CLOSE sales from February 2001 and March 2023 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 February 2001 sale was for 34% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 34% above the HPI over time, until the March 2023 sale, where it falls to 14% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 14% above the HPI.

What might 4 RUFFLES CLOSE be worth now?

The 1.7% deflationary decrease is applied to the most recent sale price for 4 RUFFLES CLOSE of £721,000 on 24th March 2023. For the value to have decreased from £721,000 to £708,576 over the two years and one month to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
