60 DIGSWELL RISE 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 60 DIGSWELL RISE sales between February 1997 and May 2014 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 April 1999 sale was for 43% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 43% below the HPI over time, until the May 2014 sale, where it rises to 40% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 40% below the HPI.

What might 60 DIGSWELL RISE be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 48.5%, between May 2014 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 48.5% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 60 DIGSWELL RISE of £365,000 on 27th May 2014. For the value to have increased from £365,000 to £541,974 over the nine years and five months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:
