8A ROSECROFT LANE 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 ROSECROFT LANE sales from September 2016 and June 2021 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 September 2016 sale was for 50% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 50% below the HPI over time, until the June 2021 sale, where it rises to 28% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 28% below the HPI.

What might 8A ROSECROFT LANE be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 6.1%, between June 2021 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 6.1% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 8A ROSECROFT LANE of £638,500 on 28th June 2021. For the value to have increased from £638,500 to £677,537 over the four years and four months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 8A ROSECROFT LANE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Welwyn Hatfield local authority area.
• The June 2021 sale price of £638,500 represented a fair market value for the property.
