16 WATERBEACH Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Welwyn Hatfield local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 16 WATERBEACH sales from March 2018 and February 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 March 2018 sale was for 23% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 23% below the HPI over time, until the February 2020 sale, where it rises to 20% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 20% below the HPI.

What might 16 WATERBEACH be worth now?
