8 HERSCHELL ROAD Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Southend-on-Sea local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 8 HERSCHELL ROAD sales between June 1999 and July 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 March 2005 sale was for 104% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 104% above the HPI over time, until the July 2015 sale, where it rises to 138% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 138% above the HPI.

What might 8 HERSCHELL ROAD be worth now?

8 HERSCHELL ROAD might now be worth an estimated £1,471,270.

This is based on house price inflation of 50.9%, between July 2015 and December 2024, for detached houses, in the Southend-on-Sea local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 50.9% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 8 HERSCHELL ROAD of £975,000 on 6th July 2015. For the value to have increased from £975,000 to £1,471,270 over the eight years and seven months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:
