8 JAY CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Braintree local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 8 JAY CLOSE sales from September 1999 and April 2014 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 September 1999 sale was for 18% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 18% above the HPI over time, until the April 2014 sale, where it falls to 3% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 3% above the HPI.

What might 8 JAY CLOSE be worth now?

8 JAY CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £598,674.

This is based on house price inflation of 66.3%, between April 2014 and December 2024, for detached houses, in the Braintree local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 66.3% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 8 JAY CLOSE of £360,000 on 25th April 2014. For the value to have increased from £360,000 to £598,674 over the nine years and four months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 8 JAY CLOSE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Braintree local authority area.
