2 PIPPENS 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 2 PIPPENS sales from January 2007 and April 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 January 2007 sale was for 50% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 50% below the HPI over time, until the April 2010 sale, where it falls to 54% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 54% below the HPI.

What might 2 PIPPENS be worth now?

2 PIPPENS might now be worth an estimated £428,411.

This is based on house price inflation of 77%, between April 2010 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Welwyn Hatfield local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 77% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 2 PIPPENS of £242,000 on 30th April 2010. For the value to have increased from £242,000 to £428,411 over the fifteen years and two months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 2 PIPPENS has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Welwyn Hatfield local authority area.
• The April 2010 sale price of £242,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of 2 PIPPENS has not materially changed since April 2010.
