GATESGARTH Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Chelmsford local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two GATESGARTH sales from December 2004 and August 2018 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 2004 sale was for 47% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 47% above the HPI over time, until the August 2018 sale, where it falls to 14% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 14% below the HPI.

What might GATESGARTH be worth now?

GATESGARTH might now be worth an estimated £571,630.

This is based on house price inflation of 14.3%, between August 2018 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Chelmsford local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 14.3% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for GATESGARTH of £500,000 on 31st August 2018. For the value to have increased from £500,000 to £571,630 over the seven years and six months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of GATESGARTH has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Chelmsford local authority area.
• The August 2018 sale price of £500,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of GATESGARTH has not materially changed since August 2018.
