20 LARCH AVENUE 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 20 LARCH AVENUE sales from June 2009 and October 2015 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 2009 sale was for 68% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 68% below the HPI over time, until the October 2015 sale, where it rises to 62% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 62% below the HPI.

What might 20 LARCH AVENUE be worth now?

20 LARCH AVENUE might now be worth an estimated £469,690.

This is based on house price inflation of 30.5%, between October 2015 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 30.5% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 20 LARCH AVENUE of £360,000 on 15th October 2015. For the value to have increased from £360,000 to £469,690 over the eight years and ten months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The October 2015 sale price of £360,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
