HIGHWAYS 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 two HIGHWAYS sales from March 2015 and May 2018 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 March 2015 sale was for 6% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 6% below the HPI over time, until the May 2018 sale, where it rises to 116% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 116% above the HPI.

What might HIGHWAYS be worth now?

HIGHWAYS might now be worth an estimated £1,991,553.

This is based on house price inflation of 18.2%, between May 2018 and February 2025, 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 18.2% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for HIGHWAYS of £1,685,000 on 31st May 2018. For the value to have increased from £1,685,000 to £1,991,553 over the seven years and three months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of HIGHWAYS has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Dacorum local authority area.
• The May 2018 sale price of £1,685,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of HIGHWAYS has not materially changed since May 2018.
