ASH TREES Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Braintree local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three ASH TREES sales between October 1995 and October 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 August 2003 sale was for 27% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 27% above the HPI over time, until the October 2008 sale, where it rises to 45% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 45% above the HPI.

What might ASH TREES be worth now?

ASH TREES might now be worth an estimated £820,629.

This is based on house price inflation of 74.6%, between October 2008 and June 2025, for detached houses, in the Braintree local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 74.6% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for ASH TREES of £470,000 on 6th October 2008. For the value to have increased from £470,000 to £820,629 over the seventeen years and four months to June 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of ASH TREES has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Braintree local authority area.
• The October 2008 sale price of £470,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of ASH TREES has not materially changed since October 2008.
