LONGWOOD Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Basildon local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two LONGWOOD sales from April 2001 and February 2006 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 2001 sale was for 91% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 91% above the HPI over time, until the February 2006 sale, where it falls to 37% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 37% above the HPI.

What might LONGWOOD be worth now?

LONGWOOD might now be worth an estimated £905,751.

This is based on house price inflation of 110.6%, between February 2006 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Basildon local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 110.6% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for LONGWOOD of £430,000 on 17th February 2006. For the value to have increased from £430,000 to £905,751 over the nineteen years to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of LONGWOOD has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Basildon local authority area.
• The February 2006 sale price of £430,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of LONGWOOD has not materially changed since February 2006.
