HIGHGATES HOUSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Braintree local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three HIGHGATES HOUSE sales between September 2009 and October 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 July 2010 sale was for 2% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 2% below the HPI over time, until the October 2016 sale, where it rises to 2% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 2% above the HPI.

What might HIGHGATES HOUSE be worth now?

HIGHGATES HOUSE might now be worth an estimated £586,652.

This is based on house price inflation of 27.5%, between October 2016 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Braintree local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 27.5% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for HIGHGATES HOUSE of £460,000 on 28th October 2016. For the value to have increased from £460,000 to £586,652 over the nine years and eight months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of HIGHGATES HOUSE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Braintree local authority area.
