13 BLACKBIRD CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Colchester local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 13 BLACKBIRD CLOSE sales from April 2018 and October 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 2018 sale was for 2% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 2% below the HPI over time, until the October 2023 sale, where it rises to 1% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 1% above the HPI.

What might 13 BLACKBIRD CLOSE be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 3%, between October 2023 and February 2025, for semi-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 3% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 13 BLACKBIRD CLOSE of £325,000 on 20th October 2023. For the value to have increased from £325,000 to £334,893 over the two years and eight months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
