8 FAIRBANK CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average terraced house price in the Epping Forest local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 8 FAIRBANK CLOSE sales from September 1996 and January 1999 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 September 1996 sale was for 32% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 32% below the HPI over time, until the January 1999 sale, where it rises to 30% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 30% below the HPI.

What might 8 FAIRBANK CLOSE be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 394.4%, between January 1999 and August 2025, for terraced houses, in the Epping Forest local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 394.4% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 8 FAIRBANK CLOSE of £66,000 on 29th January 1999. For the value to have increased from £66,000 to £326,316 over the 25 years and five months to August 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
