24 BLACKHORSE LANE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the North Hertfordshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The five 24 BLACKHORSE LANE sales between March 2002 and November 2017 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 October 2014 sale was for 16% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 16% above the HPI over time, until the November 2017 sale, where it rises to 28% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 28% above the HPI.

What might 24 BLACKHORSE LANE be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 16%, between November 2017 and February 2025, for semi-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% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 24 BLACKHORSE LANE of £507,500 on 22nd November 2017. For the value to have increased from £507,500 to £588,758 over the eight years and nine months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
