The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the St Albans local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The six 12 BEN AUSTINS sales between June 1999 and March 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 August 2014 sale was for 14% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 14% below the HPI over time, until the March 2023 sale, where it rises to 5% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 5% below the HPI.

12 BEN AUSTINS might now be worth an estimated £718,875.
This is based on house price inflation of 4.2%, between March 2023 and May 2026, for semi-detached houses, in the St Albans local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).
The 4.2% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 12 BEN AUSTINS of £690,000 on 20th March 2023. For the value to have increased from £690,000 to £718,875 over the two years and ten months to May 2026, the following assumptions must hold true:
