MORTYN 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 MORTYN HOUSE sales between April 2001 and August 2013 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 January 2008 sale was for 32% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 32% above the HPI over time, until the August 2013 sale, where it rises to 43% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 43% above the HPI.

What might MORTYN HOUSE be worth now?

MORTYN HOUSE might now be worth an estimated £823,212.

This is based on house price inflation of 74%, between August 2013 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 74% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for MORTYN HOUSE of £473,000 on 13th August 2013. For the value to have increased from £473,000 to £823,212 over the twelve years and six months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of MORTYN HOUSE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Braintree local authority area.
• The August 2013 sale price of £473,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of MORTYN HOUSE has not materially changed since August 2013.
