42 DAPIFER DRIVE 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 four 42 DAPIFER DRIVE sales between March 2000 and February 2019 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 January 2016 sale was for 13% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 13% below the HPI over time, until the February 2019 sale, where it falls to 14% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 14% below the HPI.

What might 42 DAPIFER DRIVE be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 16%, between February 2019 and December 2024, 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 16% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 42 DAPIFER DRIVE of £430,000 on 27th February 2019. For the value to have increased from £430,000 to £498,663 over the four years and two months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:
