3 LION YARD Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the North Hertfordshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 3 LION YARD sales from September 1997 and August 2020 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 September 1997 sale was for 83% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 83% above the HPI over time, until the August 2020 sale, where it falls to 49% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 49% above the HPI.

What might 3 LION YARD be worth now?

3 LION YARD might now be worth an estimated £689,692.

This is based on house price inflation of 14.9%, between August 2020 and February 2025, for semi-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 14.9% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 3 LION YARD of £600,500 on 21st August 2020. For the value to have increased from £600,500 to £689,692 over the five years and six months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 3 LION YARD has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the North Hertfordshire local authority area.
• The August 2020 sale price of £600,500 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of 3 LION YARD has not materially changed since August 2020.
