32 MARFORD ROAD Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the St Albans local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 32 MARFORD ROAD sales from June 2009 and June 2021 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 June 2009 sale was for 75% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 75% below the HPI over time, until the June 2021 sale, where it rises to 42% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 42% below the HPI.

What might 32 MARFORD ROAD be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 15.5%, between June 2021 and December 2024, for 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 15.5% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 32 MARFORD ROAD of £625,000 on 9th June 2021. For the value to have increased from £625,000 to £722,140 over the two years and six months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:
