BOURNWELL 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 BOURNWELL sales from May 2015 and January 2022 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 2015 sale was for 19% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 19% below the HPI over time, until the January 2022 sale, where it rises to 1% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 1% below the HPI.

What might BOURNWELL be worth now?

BOURNWELL might now be worth an estimated £896,979.

This is based on house price deflation of 4.6%, between January 2022 and December 2024, 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 4.6% deflationary decrease is applied to the most recent sale price for BOURNWELL of £940,000 on 19th January 2022. For the value to have decreased from £940,000 to £896,979 over the one year and one month to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of BOURNWELL has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Welwyn Hatfield local authority area.
• The January 2022 sale price of £940,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of BOURNWELL has not materially changed since January 2022.
