71 PERIWINKLE 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 three 71 PERIWINKLE LANE sales between May 2004 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 2006 sale was for 18% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 18% above the HPI over time, until the July 2012 sale, where it rises to 30% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 30% above the HPI.

What might 71 PERIWINKLE LANE be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 82.7%, between July 2012 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 82.7% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 71 PERIWINKLE LANE of £565,000 on 17th July 2012. For the value to have increased from £565,000 to £1,032,133 over the eleven years and seven months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 71 PERIWINKLE LANE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the North Hertfordshire local authority area.
• The July 2012 sale price of £565,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
