THE BERRIES Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Maldon local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two THE BERRIES sales from October 2020 and November 2022 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 October 2020 sale was for 1% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 1% below the HPI over time, until the November 2022 sale, where it falls to 3% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 3% below the HPI.

What might THE BERRIES be worth now?

THE BERRIES might now be worth an estimated £536,678.

This is based on house price deflation of 3.7%, between November 2022 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Maldon local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 3.7% deflationary decrease is applied to the most recent sale price for THE BERRIES of £557,500 on 18th November 2022. For the value to have decreased from £557,500 to £536,678 over the three years and nine months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of THE BERRIES has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Maldon local authority area.
• The November 2022 sale price of £557,500 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of THE BERRIES has not materially changed since November 2022.
