FALSTAFF Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Rochford local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The five FALSTAFF sales between July 2004 and January 2024 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 February 2021 sale was for 8% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 8% above the HPI over time, until the January 2024 sale, where it rises to 20% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 20% above the HPI.

What might FALSTAFF be worth now?

FALSTAFF might now be worth an estimated £457,122.

This is based on house price inflation of 6.3%, between January 2024 and February 2025, for semi-detached houses, in the Rochford local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 6.3% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for FALSTAFF of £430,000 on 19th January 2024. For the value to have increased from £430,000 to £457,122 over the eleven months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of FALSTAFF has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the Rochford local authority area.
• The January 2024 sale price of £430,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of FALSTAFF has not materially changed since January 2024.
