42 MERSEA CRESCENT Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Basildon local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four 42 MERSEA CRESCENT sales between June 2000 and December 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 February 2016 sale was for 2% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 2% above the HPI over time, until the December 2019 sale, which was also at 2% above the HPI.

What might 42 MERSEA CRESCENT be worth now?

42 MERSEA CRESCENT might now be worth an estimated £424,857.

This is based on house price inflation of 21.4%, between December 2019 and February 2025, for semi-detached houses, in the Basildon local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 21.4% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 42 MERSEA CRESCENT of £350,000 on 5th December 2019. For the value to have increased from £350,000 to £424,857 over the six years and ten months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 42 MERSEA CRESCENT has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the Basildon local authority area.
• The December 2019 sale price of £350,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
