PICKAWAY Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Dacorum local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two PICKAWAY sales from November 2000 and May 2011 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 November 2000 sale was for 28% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 28% above the HPI over time, until the May 2011 sale, where it rises to 76% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 76% above the HPI.

What might PICKAWAY be worth now?

PICKAWAY might now be worth an estimated £969,107.

This is based on house price inflation of 97%, between May 2011 and December 2024, for semi-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 97% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for PICKAWAY of £492,000 on 17th May 2011. For the value to have increased from £492,000 to £969,107 over the twelve years and five months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of PICKAWAY has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the Dacorum local authority area.
• The May 2011 sale price of £492,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of PICKAWAY has not materially changed since May 2011.
