What might 4 READ CLOSE be worth now?

4 READ CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £556,856.

This is based on house price inflation of 11.4%, between February 2019 and April 2026, for detached houses, in the Rochford local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 11.4% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 4 READ CLOSE of £500,000 on 15th February 2019. For the value to have increased from £500,000 to £556,856 over the six years and ten months to April 2026, the following assumptions must hold true:

  • The value of 4 READ CLOSE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Rochford local authority area.
  • The February 2019 sale price of £500,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
  • The size, condition, and specification of 4 READ CLOSE has not materially changed since February 2019.
Disclaimer: Please note that this is a theoretical estimate based on assumptions which may or may not be correct. It should not be relied on for any purpose.
