8 STEEPLE HEIGHTS 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 three 8 STEEPLE HEIGHTS sales between January 1999 and May 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 March 2005 sale was for 3% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 3% above the HPI over time, until the May 2014 sale, where it falls to 11% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 11% below the HPI.

What might 8 STEEPLE HEIGHTS be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 68.7%, between May 2014 and February 2025, 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 68.7% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 8 STEEPLE HEIGHTS of £244,000 on 23rd May 2014. For the value to have increased from £244,000 to £411,634 over the eleven years and three months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 8 STEEPLE HEIGHTS has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Castle Point local authority area.
• The May 2014 sale price of £244,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
