48 TORTOISESHELL WAY Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average terraced house price in the Braintree local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four 48 TORTOISESHELL WAY sales between December 1997 and March 2021 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 2002 sale was for 24% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 24% above the HPI over time, until the March 2021 sale, where it falls to 6% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 6% above the HPI.

What might 48 TORTOISESHELL WAY be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 11.5%, between March 2021 and June 2025, for terraced 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 11.5% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 48 TORTOISESHELL WAY of £252,000 on 9th March 2021. For the value to have increased from £252,000 to £281,029 over the three years and nine months to June 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
