42 BARLEYCROFT ROAD Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Welwyn Hatfield local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 42 BARLEYCROFT ROAD sales between November 2002 and July 2024 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 2012 sale was for 29% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 29% above the HPI over time, until the July 2024 sale, where it rises to 45% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 45% above the HPI.
