55 STERN CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average terraced house price in the Barking and Dagenham local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four 55 STERN CLOSE sales between January 1998 and July 2008 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 April 2003 sale was for 7% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 7% below the HPI over time, until the July 2008 sale, where it falls to 27% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 27% below the HPI.

What might 55 STERN CLOSE be worth now?

55 STERN CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £284,777.

This is based on house price inflation of 91.1%, between July 2008 and June 2025, for terraced houses, in the Barking and Dagenham local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 91.1% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 55 STERN CLOSE of £149,000 on 10th July 2008. For the value to have increased from £149,000 to £284,777 over the seventeen years and one month to June 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 55 STERN CLOSE has moved in line with the HPI for terraced houses in the Barking and Dagenham local authority area.
• The July 2008 sale price of £149,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
