3 FORDHAM CLOSE 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 three 3 FORDHAM CLOSE sales between May 2006 and July 2016 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 2013 sale was for 31% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 31% above the HPI over time, until the July 2016 sale, where it falls to 18% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 18% above the HPI.

What might 3 FORDHAM CLOSE be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 22.4%, between July 2016 and February 2025, 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 22.4% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 3 FORDHAM CLOSE of £750,000 on 11th July 2016. For the value to have increased from £750,000 to £917,816 over the nine years and five months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
