38 DENTS CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the North Hertfordshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four 38 DENTS CLOSE sales between February 2000 and December 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 February 2017 sale was for 33% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 33% below the HPI over time, until the December 2020 sale, which was also at 33% below the HPI.

What might 38 DENTS CLOSE be worth now?
