16 RIDGEWOOD GARDENS 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 six 16 RIDGEWOOD GARDENS sales between April 1997 and February 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 April 2012 sale was for 5% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 5% below the HPI over time, until the February 2021 sale, where it falls to 9% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 9% below the HPI.

What might 16 RIDGEWOOD GARDENS be worth now?
