40 WEST HILL Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the North Hertfordshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 40 WEST HILL sales between November 2006 and June 2016 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 September 2007 sale was for 59% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 59% above the HPI over time, until the June 2016 sale, where it rises to 81% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 81% above the HPI.

What might 40 WEST HILL be worth now?

40 WEST HILL might now be worth an estimated £853,354.

This is based on house price inflation of 27.4%, between June 2016 and March 2025, for semi-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 27.4% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 40 WEST HILL of £670,000 on 22nd June 2016. For the value to have increased from £670,000 to £853,354 over the nine years and three months to March 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

  • The value of 40 WEST HILL has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the North Hertfordshire local authority area.
  • The June 2016 sale price of £670,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
  • The size, condition, and specification of 40 WEST HILL has not materially changed since June 2016.
Disclaimer: Please note that this is a theoretical estimate based on assumptions which may or may not be correct. It should not be relied on for any purpose.
