44 VALLEY ROAD 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 four 44 VALLEY ROAD sales between August 1999 and January 2017 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 2007 sale was for 57% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 57% above the HPI over time, until the January 2017 sale, where it falls to 55% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 55% above the HPI.

What might 44 VALLEY ROAD be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 13.5%, between January 2017 and July 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 13.5% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 44 VALLEY ROAD of £693,500 on 4th January 2017. For the value to have increased from £693,500 to £787,287 over the seven years and six months to July 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
