12 BROADMEAD 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 12 BROADMEAD sales from September 1996 and October 1997 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 16% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 16% above the HPI over time, until the October 1997 sale, where it rises to 28% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 28% above the HPI.

What might 12 BROADMEAD be worth now?

12 BROADMEAD might now be worth an estimated £601,970.

This is based on house price inflation of 447.5%, between October 1997 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 447.5% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 12 BROADMEAD of £109,950 on 10th October 1997. For the value to have increased from £109,950 to £601,970 over the 26 years and ten months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 12 BROADMEAD has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the North Hertfordshire local authority area.
• The October 1997 sale price of £109,950 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of 12 BROADMEAD has not materially changed since October 1997.
