24 WATERBEACH 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 24 WATERBEACH sales from May 2006 and January 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 May 2006 sale was for 15% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 15% below the HPI over time, until the January 2017 sale, where it falls to 20% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 20% below the HPI.

What might 24 WATERBEACH be worth now?
