40 CATHERINE CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Brentwood local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 40 CATHERINE CLOSE sales between March 1995 and November 2009 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 2006 sale was for 17% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 17% below the HPI over time, until the November 2009 sale, where it rises to 9% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 9% below the HPI.

What might 40 CATHERINE CLOSE be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 94.9%, between November 2009 and December 2024, for semi-detached houses, in the Brentwood local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 94.9% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 40 CATHERINE CLOSE of £250,000 on 2nd November 2009. For the value to have increased from £250,000 to £487,232 over the fourteen years and eleven months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:
