72 FIRWOOD AVENUE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

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 72 FIRWOOD AVENUE sales between July 1996 and December 2017 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 2011 sale was for 28% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 28% above the HPI over time, until the December 2017 sale, where it falls to 7% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 7% above the HPI.

What might 72 FIRWOOD AVENUE be worth now?

The 15.1% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 72 FIRWOOD AVENUE of £690,000 on 8th December 2017. For the value to have increased from £690,000 to £794,143 over the eight years and two months to October 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
