5 MALTINGS CLOSE 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 four 5 MALTINGS CLOSE sales between February 2002 and July 2012 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 August 2004 sale was for 33% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 33% below the HPI over time, until the July 2012 sale, where it falls to 37% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 37% below the HPI.

What might 5 MALTINGS CLOSE be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 79%, between July 2012 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 79% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 5 MALTINGS CLOSE of £275,000 on 26th July 2012. For the value to have increased from £275,000 to £492,250 over the thirteen years and five months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 5 MALTINGS CLOSE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the North Hertfordshire local authority area.
