18 THAMES CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Braintree local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 18 THAMES CLOSE sales between July 1999 and September 2019 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 2015 sale was for 26% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 26% below the HPI over time, until the September 2019 sale, where it falls to 28% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 28% below the HPI.

What might 18 THAMES CLOSE be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 15.2%, between September 2019 and April 2026, for semi-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 15.2% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 18 THAMES CLOSE of £205,000 on 6th September 2019. For the value to have increased from £205,000 to £236,222 over the seven years and five months to April 2026, the following assumptions must hold true:
