MILDMAYS Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Colchester local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three MILDMAYS sales between July 1998 and February 2023 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 2015 sale was for 13% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 13% above the HPI over time, until the February 2023 sale, where it rises to 36% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 36% above the HPI.

What might MILDMAYS be worth now?

MILDMAYS might now be worth an estimated £686,421.

This is based on house price deflation of 4%, between February 2023 and March 2025, for detached houses, in the Colchester local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 4% deflationary decrease is applied to the most recent sale price for MILDMAYS of £715,000 on 17th February 2023. For the value to have decreased from £715,000 to £686,421 over the one year and eleven months to March 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of MILDMAYS has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Colchester local authority area.
• The February 2023 sale price of £715,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of MILDMAYS has not materially changed since February 2023.
