5 GIRAFFE ROW Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Colchester local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 5 GIRAFFE ROW sales between June 2018 and February 2025 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 2024 sale was for 8% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 8% below the HPI over time, until the February 2025 sale, where it falls to 11% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 11% below the HPI.

What might 5 GIRAFFE ROW be worth now?

The 1.7% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 5 GIRAFFE ROW of £290,000 on 28th February 2025. For the value to have increased from £290,000 to £294,791 over the ten months to April 2026, the following assumptions must hold true:
