8 BARNCOMBE 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 four 8 BARNCOMBE CLOSE sales between March 2008 and August 2022 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 2019 sale was for 13% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 13% below the HPI over time, until the August 2022 sale, where it falls to 22% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 22% below the HPI.

What might 8 BARNCOMBE CLOSE be worth now?

This is based on house price deflation of 3.1%, between August 2022 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 3.1% deflationary decrease is applied to the most recent sale price for 8 BARNCOMBE CLOSE of £387,000 on 15th August 2022. For the value to have decreased from £387,000 to £374,820 over the one year and eight months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 8 BARNCOMBE CLOSE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Castle Point local authority area.
• The August 2022 sale price of £387,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
