8A FIRWAY Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Welwyn Hatfield local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 8A FIRWAY sales from December 2001 and August 2024 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 December 2001 sale was for 8% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 8% above the HPI over time, until the August 2024 sale, where it falls to 26% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 26% below the HPI.

What might 8A FIRWAY be worth now?

8A FIRWAY might now be worth an estimated £690,318.

This is based on house price deflation of 0.7%, between August 2024 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Welwyn Hatfield local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 0.7% deflationary decrease is applied to the most recent sale price for 8A FIRWAY of £695,000 on 29th August 2024. For the value to have decreased from £695,000 to £690,318 over the one year and six months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 8A FIRWAY has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Welwyn Hatfield local authority area.
• The August 2024 sale price of £695,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of 8A FIRWAY has not materially changed since August 2024.
