RUSHCROFT 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 RUSHCROFT sales from June 1996 and August 2014 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 June 1996 sale was for 31% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 31% above the HPI over time, until the August 2014 sale, where it falls to 30% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 30% above the HPI.

What might RUSHCROFT be worth now?

RUSHCROFT might now be worth an estimated £902,404.

This is based on house price inflation of 58.3%, between August 2014 and June 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 58.3% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for RUSHCROFT of £570,000 on 1st August 2014. For the value to have increased from £570,000 to £902,404 over the eleven years and two months to June 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of RUSHCROFT has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Chelmsford local authority area.
• The August 2014 sale price of £570,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of RUSHCROFT has not materially changed since August 2014.
