31 ROSECROFT DRIVE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Watford local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 31 ROSECROFT DRIVE sales between February 2010 and May 2022 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 5% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 5% above the HPI over time, until the May 2022 sale, where it falls to 5% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 5% below the HPI.

What might 31 ROSECROFT DRIVE be worth now?

This is based on house price deflation of 3.3%, between May 2022 and December 2024, for detached houses, in the Watford local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 3.3% deflationary decrease is applied to the most recent sale price for 31 ROSECROFT DRIVE of £872,500 on 24th May 2022. For the value to have decreased from £872,500 to £843,815 over the one year and five months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:
