The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Colchester local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 88 THE AVENUE sales from October 2003 and February 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 October 2003 sale was for 10% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 10% above the HPI over time, until the February 2014 sale, where it rises to 63% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 63% above the HPI.
88 THE AVENUE might now be worth an estimated £827,046.
This is based on house price inflation of 65.4%, between February 2014 and December 2024, for detached houses, in the Colchester local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).
The 65.4% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 88 THE AVENUE of £499,995 on 3rd February 2014. For the value to have increased from £499,995 to £827,046 over the nine years and two months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:
