5A SUFFOLK CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the St Albans local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 5A SUFFOLK CLOSE sales between December 2006 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 October 2007 sale was for 25% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 25% below the HPI over time, until the January 2017 sale, where it rises to 24% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 24% below the HPI.

What might 5A SUFFOLK CLOSE be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 19.2%, between January 2017 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the St Albans local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 19.2% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 5A SUFFOLK CLOSE of £785,000 on 31st January 2017. For the value to have increased from £785,000 to £935,654 over the seven years and eleven months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
