9 HERON GARDENS Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Rochford local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 9 HERON GARDENS sales between July 1998 and August 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 August 2006 sale was for 13% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 13% below the HPI over time, until the August 2023 sale, where it rises to 9% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 9% below the HPI.

What might 9 HERON GARDENS be worth now?
