HIGHFIELD Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Dacorum local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three HIGHFIELD sales between August 2007 and July 2023 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 July 2011 sale was for 25% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 25% above the HPI over time, until the July 2023 sale, where it rises to 42% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 42% above the HPI.

What might HIGHFIELD be worth now?

HIGHFIELD might now be worth an estimated £1,318,830.

This is based on house price inflation of 3%, between July 2023 and December 2024, for detached houses, in the Dacorum local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 3% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for HIGHFIELD of £1,280,000 on 10th July 2023. For the value to have increased from £1,280,000 to £1,318,830 over the seven months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of HIGHFIELD has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Dacorum local authority area.
• The July 2023 sale price of £1,280,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of HIGHFIELD has not materially changed since July 2023.
