4 JUNCTION COTTAGES Price Paid vs. HPI Average

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 4 JUNCTION COTTAGES sales from August 2016 and January 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 August 2016 sale was for 25% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 25% below the HPI over time, until the January 2021 sale, where it rises to 14% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 14% below the HPI.

What might 4 JUNCTION COTTAGES be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 8.3%, between January 2021 and March 2025, for semi-detached houses, in the Welwyn Hatfield local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 8.3% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 4 JUNCTION COTTAGES of £418,000 on 22nd January 2021. For the value to have increased from £418,000 to £452,695 over the three years and ten months to March 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
