19 LEYCROFT WAY 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 three 19 LEYCROFT WAY sales between July 1995 and August 2009 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 May 1997 sale was for 25% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 25% below the HPI over time, until the August 2009 sale, where it falls to 28% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 28% below the HPI.

What might 19 LEYCROFT WAY be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 115.8%, between August 2009 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 115.8% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 19 LEYCROFT WAY of £415,000 on 28th August 2009. For the value to have increased from £415,000 to £895,409 over the fourteen years and eight months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:
