8 LINWOOD ROAD 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 8 LINWOOD ROAD sales between November 1996 and August 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 July 2012 sale was for 17% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 17% below the HPI over time, until the August 2017 sale, where it falls to 22% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 22% below the HPI.

What might 8 LINWOOD ROAD be worth now?

8 LINWOOD ROAD might now be worth an estimated £584,005.

This is based on house price inflation of 19.4%, between August 2017 and February 2025, 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 19.4% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 8 LINWOOD ROAD of £489,000 on 30th August 2017. For the value to have increased from £489,000 to £584,005 over the eight years and six months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 8 LINWOOD ROAD has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the St Albans local authority area.
• The August 2017 sale price of £489,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
