17 GOWAN CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Castle Point local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 17 GOWAN CLOSE sales from January 1998 and May 2018 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 1998 sale was for 13% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 13% above the HPI over time, until the May 2018 sale, where it falls to 7% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 7% above the HPI.

What might 17 GOWAN CLOSE be worth now?

17 GOWAN CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £381,263.

This is based on house price inflation of 25.4%, between May 2018 and April 2026, for semi-detached houses, in the Castle Point local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 25.4% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 17 GOWAN CLOSE of £304,000 on 21st May 2018. For the value to have increased from £304,000 to £381,263 over the eight years and one month to April 2026, the following assumptions must hold true:
