81 HALSEY DRIVE 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 four 81 HALSEY DRIVE sales between January 2008 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 May 2014 sale was for 22% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 22% below the HPI over time, until the December 2020 sale, where it falls to 30% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 30% below the HPI.

What might 81 HALSEY DRIVE be worth now?

81 HALSEY DRIVE might now be worth an estimated £552,560.

This is based on house price inflation of 10.5%, between December 2020 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 10.5% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 81 HALSEY DRIVE of £500,000 on 22nd December 2020. For the value to have increased from £500,000 to £552,560 over the four years to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 81 HALSEY DRIVE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the North Hertfordshire local authority area.
• The December 2020 sale price of £500,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of 81 HALSEY DRIVE has not materially changed since December 2020.
