26 CATHARINE CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Thurrock local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 26 CATHARINE CLOSE sales from October 1995 and August 2007 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 1995 sale was for 57% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 57% above the HPI over time, until the August 2007 sale, where it falls to 10% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 10% above the HPI.

What might 26 CATHARINE CLOSE be worth now?

26 CATHARINE CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £659,061.

This is based on house price inflation of 87.8%, between August 2007 and June 2025, for detached houses, in the Thurrock local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 87.8% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 26 CATHARINE CLOSE of £351,000 on 17th August 2007. For the value to have increased from £351,000 to £659,061 over the eighteen years and two months to June 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 26 CATHARINE CLOSE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Thurrock local authority area.
• The August 2007 sale price of £351,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
