44 HIGHFIELDS 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 six 44 HIGHFIELDS sales between February 1999 and August 2018 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 October 2012 sale was for 26% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 26% below the HPI over time, until the August 2018 sale, where it falls to 29% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 29% below the HPI.

What might 44 HIGHFIELDS be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 17.4%, between August 2018 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 17.4% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 44 HIGHFIELDS of £352,000 on 10th August 2018. For the value to have increased from £352,000 to £413,310 over the five years and eight months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:
