12 CROMWELL CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the St Albans local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four 12 CROMWELL CLOSE sales between November 1999 and April 2023 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 April 2015 sale was for 25% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 25% below the HPI over time, until the April 2023 sale, where it rises to 24% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 24% below the HPI.

What might 12 CROMWELL CLOSE be worth now?
