8 COOPERS CLOSE 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 8 COOPERS CLOSE sales from November 2005 and October 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 November 2005 sale was for 31% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 31% below the HPI over time, until the October 2019 sale, where it rises to 25% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 25% below the HPI.

What might 8 COOPERS CLOSE be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 19.2%, between October 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 19.2% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 8 COOPERS CLOSE of £500,000 on 21st October 2019. For the value to have increased from £500,000 to £595,900 over the four years and ten months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:
