8 VICARAGE 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 two 8 VICARAGE HEIGHTS sales from February 2003 and February 2023 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 February 2003 sale was for 16% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 16% below the HPI over time, until the February 2023 sale, where it rises to 53% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 53% above the HPI.

What might 8 VICARAGE HEIGHTS be worth now?

This is based on house price deflation of 5.5%, between February 2023 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 5.5% deflationary decrease is applied to the most recent sale price for 8 VICARAGE HEIGHTS of £750,000 on 23rd February 2023. For the value to have decreased from £750,000 to £709,084 over the two years to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
