63A BENSLOW LANE 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 63A BENSLOW LANE sales from October 2010 and January 2019 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 2010 sale was for 2% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 2% below the HPI over time, until the January 2019 sale, where it rises to 7% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 7% above the HPI.

What might 63A BENSLOW LANE be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 17.3%, between January 2019 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 17.3% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 63A BENSLOW LANE of £720,000 on 10th January 2019. For the value to have increased from £720,000 to £844,434 over the four years and one month to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:
