16A PADDOCK WOOD 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 two 16A PADDOCK WOOD sales from September 2004 and May 2010 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 September 2004 sale was for 23% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 23% below the HPI over time, until the May 2010 sale, where it falls to 40% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 40% below the HPI.

What might 16A PADDOCK WOOD be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 87.1%, between May 2010 and December 2024, for detached houses, in the St Albans local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 87.1% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 16A PADDOCK WOOD of £399,950 on 28th May 2010. For the value to have increased from £399,950 to £748,343 over the thirteen years and five months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The May 2010 sale price of £399,950 represented a fair market value for the property.
