6 HAZEL CLOSE 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 6 HAZEL CLOSE sales between February 2001 and February 2016 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 2015 sale was for 46% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 46% below the HPI over time, until the February 2016 sale, where it rises to 30% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 30% below the HPI.

What might 6 HAZEL CLOSE be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 21.8%, between February 2016 and December 2024, for 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 21.8% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 6 HAZEL CLOSE of £520,000 on 23rd February 2016. For the value to have increased from £520,000 to £633,178 over the seven years and two months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 6 HAZEL CLOSE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Welwyn Hatfield local authority area.
• The February 2016 sale price of £520,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
