6 MARLBOROUGH CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Castle Point local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 6 MARLBOROUGH CLOSE sales between June 1999 and September 2015 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 August 2012 sale was for 15% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 15% below the HPI over time, until the September 2015 sale, where it falls to 18% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 18% below the HPI.

What might 6 MARLBOROUGH CLOSE be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 46.9%, between September 2015 and December 2024, for detached houses, in the Castle Point local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 46.9% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 6 MARLBOROUGH CLOSE of £269,000 on 28th September 2015. For the value to have increased from £269,000 to £395,052 over the eight years and nine months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 6 MARLBOROUGH CLOSE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Castle Point local authority area.
• The September 2015 sale price of £269,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
