13 ABBOTS CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the East Hertfordshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 13 ABBOTS CLOSE sales from September 1999 and May 2003 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 September 1999 sale was for 47% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 47% above the HPI over time, until the May 2003 sale, where it falls to 34% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 34% above the HPI.

What might 13 ABBOTS CLOSE be worth now?

The 127.5% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 13 ABBOTS CLOSE of £300,000 on 27th May 2003. For the value to have increased from £300,000 to £682,555 over the 21 years and eleven months to June 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
