4 RECTORY HILL Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average terraced house price in the Colchester local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 4 RECTORY HILL sales from May 1997 and January 2012 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 May 1997 sale was for 8% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 8% below the HPI over time, until the January 2012 sale, where it falls to 17% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 17% below the HPI.

What might 4 RECTORY HILL be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 78.6%, between January 2012 and August 2025, for terraced 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 78.6% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 4 RECTORY HILL of £124,000 on 17th January 2012. For the value to have increased from £124,000 to £221,447 over the twelve years and five months to August 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
