8 WOOD END ROAD Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the St Albans local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 8 WOOD END ROAD sales from July 2009 and December 2020 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 July 2009 sale was for 96% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 96% above the HPI over time, until the December 2020 sale, where it falls to 73% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 73% above the HPI.

What might 8 WOOD END ROAD be worth now?
