2 ACACIA WALK 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 2 ACACIA WALK sales from June 2011 and August 2016 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 June 2011 sale was for 39% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 39% below the HPI over time, until the August 2016 sale, where it falls to 46% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 46% below the HPI.

What might 2 ACACIA WALK be worth now?

2 ACACIA WALK might now be worth an estimated £672,752.

This is based on house price inflation of 21.2%, between August 2016 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 21.2% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 2 ACACIA WALK of £555,000 on 8th August 2016. For the value to have increased from £555,000 to £672,752 over the seven years and eight months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The August 2016 sale price of £555,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
