24A BENSLOW RISE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the North Hertfordshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 24A BENSLOW RISE sales from August 2008 and May 2012 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 August 2008 sale was for 11% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 11% above the HPI over time, until the May 2012 sale, where it rises to 65% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 65% above the HPI.

What might 24A BENSLOW RISE be worth now?

24A BENSLOW RISE might now be worth an estimated £1,304,521.

This is based on house price inflation of 81.2%, between May 2012 and December 2024, for 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 81.2% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 24A BENSLOW RISE of £720,000 on 25th May 2012. For the value to have increased from £720,000 to £1,304,521 over the eleven years and five months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 24A BENSLOW RISE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the North Hertfordshire local authority area.
• The May 2012 sale price of £720,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
