10 BENSLOW RISE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the North Hertfordshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 10 BENSLOW RISE sales from January 2007 and December 2010 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 January 2007 sale was for 54% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 54% above the HPI over time, until the December 2010 sale, where it rises to 116% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 116% above the HPI.

What might 10 BENSLOW RISE be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 87%, between December 2010 and December 2024, for semi-detached houses, in the North Hertfordshire local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 87% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 10 BENSLOW RISE of £545,000 on 2nd December 2010. For the value to have increased from £545,000 to £1,019,263 over the fourteen years to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 10 BENSLOW RISE has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the North Hertfordshire local authority area.
• The December 2010 sale price of £545,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
