ASHGROVE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Basildon local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two ASHGROVE sales from March 1998 and July 1998 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 1998 sale was for 29% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 29% below the HPI over time, until the July 1998 sale, where it rises to 2% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 2% below the HPI.

What might ASHGROVE be worth now?

ASHGROVE might now be worth an estimated £646,466.

This is based on house price inflation of 409%, between July 1998 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Basildon local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 409% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for ASHGROVE of £127,000 on 29th July 1998. For the value to have increased from £127,000 to £646,466 over the 27 years and five months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of ASHGROVE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Basildon local authority area.
• The July 1998 sale price of £127,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of ASHGROVE has not materially changed since July 1998.
