13 MEADOW WAY 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 three 13 MEADOW WAY sales between December 1998 and August 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 August 2001 sale was for 6% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 6% below the HPI over time, until the August 2023 sale, where it falls to 22% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 22% below the HPI.

What might 13 MEADOW WAY be worth now?

13 MEADOW WAY might now be worth an estimated £619,310.

This is based on house price inflation of 4.5%, between August 2023 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 4.5% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 13 MEADOW WAY of £592,500 on 8th August 2023. For the value to have increased from £592,500 to £619,310 over the eight months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:
