5 RAINSFORD AVENUE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Chelmsford local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 5 RAINSFORD AVENUE sales from June 1996 and May 2004 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 June 1996 sale was for 55% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 55% above the HPI over time, until the May 2004 sale, where it falls to 26% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 26% above the HPI.

What might 5 RAINSFORD AVENUE be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 112.6%, between May 2004 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Chelmsford local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 112.6% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 5 RAINSFORD AVENUE of £395,000 on 28th May 2004. For the value to have increased from £395,000 to £839,678 over the 21 years and three months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
