6 HIGHLANDS Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the North Hertfordshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four 6 HIGHLANDS sales between January 1999 and September 2015 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 2003 sale was for 10% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 10% below the HPI over time, until the September 2015 sale, where it falls to 11% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 11% below the HPI.

What might 6 HIGHLANDS be worth now?

6 HIGHLANDS might now be worth an estimated £425,046.

This is based on house price inflation of 42.9%, between September 2015 and May 2026, for semi-detached houses, in the North Hertfordshire local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 42.9% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 6 HIGHLANDS of £297,500 on 2nd September 2015. For the value to have increased from £297,500 to £425,046 over the eleven years and four months to May 2026, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 6 HIGHLANDS has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the North Hertfordshire local authority area.
• The September 2015 sale price of £297,500 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of 6 HIGHLANDS has not materially changed since September 2015.
