79 SEAVIEW AVENUE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Colchester local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 79 SEAVIEW AVENUE sales from December 1999 and April 2019 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 December 1999 sale was for 35% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 35% above the HPI over time, until the April 2019 sale, where it rises to 44% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 44% above the HPI.

What might 79 SEAVIEW AVENUE be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 17.1%, between April 2019 and December 2024, for detached houses, in the Colchester local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 17.1% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 79 SEAVIEW AVENUE of £625,000 on 5th April 2019. For the value to have increased from £625,000 to £731,841 over the four years and four months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:
