8 DENTS 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 five 8 DENTS CLOSE sales between September 2002 and July 2023 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 2020 sale was for 35% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 35% below the HPI over time, until the July 2023 sale, where it rises to 30% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 30% below the HPI.

What might 8 DENTS CLOSE be worth now?

8 DENTS CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £540,400.

This is based on house price inflation of 1%, between July 2023 and February 2025, 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 1% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 8 DENTS CLOSE of £535,000 on 21st July 2023. For the value to have increased from £535,000 to £540,400 over the two years and five months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 8 DENTS CLOSE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the North Hertfordshire local authority area.
• The July 2023 sale price of £535,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of 8 DENTS CLOSE has not materially changed since July 2023.
