49 HALSEY DRIVE 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 49 HALSEY DRIVE sales from June 2000 and February 2011 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 June 2000 sale was for 27% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 27% below the HPI over time, until the February 2011 sale, where it falls to 30% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 30% below the HPI.

What might 49 HALSEY DRIVE be worth now?

49 HALSEY DRIVE might now be worth an estimated £555,126.

This is based on house price inflation of 82%, between February 2011 and December 2024, 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 82% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 49 HALSEY DRIVE of £305,000 on 25th February 2011. For the value to have increased from £305,000 to £555,126 over the twelve years and two months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 49 HALSEY DRIVE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the North Hertfordshire local authority area.
• The February 2011 sale price of £305,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
