172 GREEN DRIFT 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 two 172 GREEN DRIFT sales from September 1998 and March 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 September 1998 sale was for 3% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 3% below the HPI over time, until the March 2020 sale, where it falls to 26% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 26% below the HPI.

What might 172 GREEN DRIFT be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 16.7%, between March 2020 and February 2025, 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 16.7% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 172 GREEN DRIFT of £490,000 on 18th March 2020. For the value to have increased from £490,000 to £571,810 over the five years and one month to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The March 2020 sale price of £490,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
