27B BOWERS WAY Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the St Albans local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 27B BOWERS WAY sales between April 1997 and April 2013 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 2010 sale was for 76% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 76% above the HPI over time, until the April 2013 sale, where it rises to 125% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 125% above the HPI.

What might 27B BOWERS WAY be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 76.4%, between April 2013 and December 2024, for semi-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 76.4% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 27B BOWERS WAY of £975,000 on 12th April 2013. For the value to have increased from £975,000 to £1,719,953 over the ten years and four months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:
