AT LAST Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Colchester local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two AT LAST sales from October 1997 and February 2014 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 October 1997 sale was for 25% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 25% above the HPI over time, until the February 2014 sale, where it rises to 56% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 56% above the HPI.

What might AT LAST be worth now?

AT LAST might now be worth an estimated £776,261.

This is based on house price inflation of 61.7%, between February 2014 and June 2025, for detached houses, in the Colchester local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 61.7% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for AT LAST of £480,000 on 14th February 2014. For the value to have increased from £480,000 to £776,261 over the ten years and eight months to June 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of AT LAST has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Colchester local authority area.
• The February 2014 sale price of £480,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of AT LAST has not materially changed since February 2014.
