28 BEGONIA CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Chelmsford local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four 28 BEGONIA CLOSE sales between June 1999 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 July 2002 sale was for 16% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 16% below the HPI over time, until the August 2007 sale, where it falls to 17% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 17% below the HPI.

What might 28 BEGONIA CLOSE be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 73%, between August 2007 and February 2025, for semi-detached houses, in the Chelmsford local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 73% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 28 BEGONIA CLOSE of £198,000 on 30th August 2007. For the value to have increased from £198,000 to £342,498 over the eighteen years and six months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 28 BEGONIA CLOSE has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the Chelmsford local authority area.
• The August 2007 sale price of £198,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
