27 HIGH STREET 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 four 27 HIGH STREET sales between April 2003 and June 2021 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 February 2010 sale was for 24% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 24% above the HPI over time, until the June 2021 sale, where it falls to 9% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 9% above the HPI.

What might 27 HIGH STREET be worth now?

27 HIGH STREET might now be worth an estimated £1,351,846.

This is based on house price inflation of 15.5%, between June 2021 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 15.5% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 27 HIGH STREET of £1,170,000 on 25th June 2021. For the value to have increased from £1,170,000 to £1,351,846 over the two years and six months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 27 HIGH STREET has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the St Albans local authority area.
• The June 2021 sale price of £1,170,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of 27 HIGH STREET has not materially changed since June 2021.
