45 THE CREST Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Southend-on-Sea local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 45 THE CREST sales from May 2008 and May 2010 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 May 2008 sale was for 1% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 1% above the HPI over time, until the May 2010 sale, where it falls to 4% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 4% below the HPI.

What might 45 THE CREST be worth now?

45 THE CREST might now be worth an estimated £593,033.

This is based on house price inflation of 94.4%, between May 2010 and December 2024, for detached houses, in the Southend-on-Sea local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 94.4% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 45 THE CREST of £305,000 on 28th May 2010. For the value to have increased from £305,000 to £593,033 over the thirteen years and five months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 45 THE CREST has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Southend-on-Sea local authority area.
• The May 2010 sale price of £305,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of 45 THE CREST has not materially changed since May 2010.
