ELMWOOD 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 three ELMWOOD sales between January 2000 and September 2017 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 April 2012 sale was for 56% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 56% above the HPI over time, until the September 2017 sale, where it falls to 46% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 46% above the HPI.

What might ELMWOOD be worth now?

ELMWOOD might now be worth an estimated £667,290.

This is based on house price inflation of 15.1%, between September 2017 and March 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 15.1% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for ELMWOOD of £580,000 on 18th September 2017. For the value to have increased from £580,000 to £667,290 over the eight years and six months to March 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of ELMWOOD has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Castle Point local authority area.
• The September 2017 sale price of £580,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of ELMWOOD has not materially changed since September 2017.
