26 BOWLERS END 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 26 BOWLERS END sales from November 2019 and July 2022 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 November 2019 sale was for 35% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 35% above the HPI over time, until the July 2022 sale, where it falls to 32% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 32% above the HPI.

What might 26 BOWLERS END be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 4.6%, between July 2022 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 4.6% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 26 BOWLERS END of £1,000,000 on 8th July 2022. For the value to have increased from £1,000,000 to £1,045,534 over the one year and seven months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The July 2022 sale price of £1,000,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
