ELM COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Southend-on-Sea local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two ELM COTTAGE sales from December 2002 and November 2016 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 December 2002 sale was for 84% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 84% below the HPI over time, until the November 2016 sale, where it rises to 8% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 8% above the HPI.

What might ELM COTTAGE be worth now?

ELM COTTAGE might now be worth an estimated £670,234.

This is based on house price inflation of 26.5%, between November 2016 and December 2024, for detached houses, in the Southend-on-Sea local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 26.5% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for ELM COTTAGE of £530,000 on 18th November 2016. For the value to have increased from £530,000 to £670,234 over the seven years and eleven months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of ELM COTTAGE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Southend-on-Sea local authority area.
• The November 2016 sale price of £530,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of ELM COTTAGE has not materially changed since November 2016.
