6 ACHILLES CLOSE 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 6 ACHILLES CLOSE sales between October 2011 and October 2024 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 2019 sale was for 35% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 35% below the HPI over time, until the October 2024 sale, where it falls to 40% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 40% below the HPI.

What might 6 ACHILLES CLOSE be worth now?
