4 THE BRAMBLES 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 two 4 THE BRAMBLES sales from May 1999 and January 2018 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 May 1999 sale was for 30% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 30% below the HPI over time, until the January 2018 sale, where it falls to 36% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 36% below the HPI.

What might 4 THE BRAMBLES be worth now?

4 THE BRAMBLES might now be worth an estimated £494,700.

This is based on house price inflation of 15%, between January 2018 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the North Hertfordshire local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 15% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 4 THE BRAMBLES of £430,000 on 23rd January 2018. For the value to have increased from £430,000 to £494,700 over the six years and eleven months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 4 THE BRAMBLES has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the North Hertfordshire local authority area.
• The January 2018 sale price of £430,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of 4 THE BRAMBLES has not materially changed since January 2018.
