13 HIGH VIEW Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the North Hertfordshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 13 HIGH VIEW sales from June 2009 and June 2021 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 June 2009 sale was for 27% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 27% below the HPI over time, until the June 2021 sale, where it rises to 13% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 13% above the HPI.

What might 13 HIGH VIEW be worth now?

13 HIGH VIEW might now be worth an estimated £891,166.

This is based on house price inflation of 14.3%, between June 2021 and December 2024, for 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 14.3% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 13 HIGH VIEW of £780,000 on 28th June 2021. For the value to have increased from £780,000 to £891,166 over the two years and six months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 13 HIGH VIEW has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the North Hertfordshire local authority area.
• The June 2021 sale price of £780,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of 13 HIGH VIEW has not materially changed since June 2021.
