16 DOUGLAS WAY Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average terraced house price in the Welwyn Hatfield local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four 16 DOUGLAS WAY sales between December 1996 and November 2020 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 2004 sale was for 14% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 14% below the HPI over time, until the November 2020 sale, where it falls to 18% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 18% below the HPI.

What might 16 DOUGLAS WAY be worth now?
