8 BRITTEN CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Basildon local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four 8 BRITTEN CLOSE sales between August 1998 and April 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 January 2011 sale was for 6% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 6% above the HPI over time, until the April 2021 sale, where it rises to 8% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 8% above the HPI.

What might 8 BRITTEN CLOSE be worth now?

8 BRITTEN CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £449,290.

This is based on house price inflation of 15.2%, between April 2021 and December 2024, for semi-detached houses, in the Basildon local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 15.2% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 8 BRITTEN CLOSE of £390,000 on 6th April 2021. For the value to have increased from £390,000 to £449,290 over the two years and four months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 8 BRITTEN CLOSE has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the Basildon local authority area.
• The April 2021 sale price of £390,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
