30 GIRONS CLOSE 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 30 GIRONS CLOSE sales from October 2005 and October 2012 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 October 2005 sale was for 2% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 2% below the HPI over time, until the October 2012 sale, where it rises to 16% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 16% above the HPI.

What might 30 GIRONS CLOSE be worth now?

30 GIRONS CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £546,656.

This is based on house price inflation of 82.2%, between October 2012 and December 2024, 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 82.2% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 30 GIRONS CLOSE of £299,995 on 30th October 2012. For the value to have increased from £299,995 to £546,656 over the eleven years and ten months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:
