BLUE WATERS Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Three Rivers local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two BLUE WATERS sales from April 2000 and April 2016 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 April 2000 sale was for 8% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 8% below the HPI over time, until the April 2016 sale, where it falls to 15% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 15% below the HPI.

What might BLUE WATERS be worth now?

BLUE WATERS might now be worth an estimated £956,641.

This is based on house price inflation of 11.2%, between April 2016 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Three Rivers local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 11.2% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for BLUE WATERS of £860,000 on 11th April 2016. For the value to have increased from £860,000 to £956,641 over the nine years and two months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of BLUE WATERS has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Three Rivers local authority area.
• The April 2016 sale price of £860,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of BLUE WATERS has not materially changed since April 2016.
