The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Welwyn Hatfield local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 36 THORNTON ROAD sales from October 2003 and September 2014 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 2003 sale was for 8% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 8% above the HPI over time, until the September 2014 sale, where it falls to 5% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 5% above the HPI.
36 THORNTON ROAD might now be worth an estimated £551,653.

The 51.3% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 36 THORNTON ROAD of £364,500 on 26th September 2014. For the value to have increased from £364,500 to £551,653 over the eleven years and seven months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
