WEST VIEW Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Three Rivers local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three WEST VIEW sales between July 2004 and July 2016 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 November 2009 sale was for 39% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 39% below the HPI over time, until the July 2016 sale, where it rises to 35% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 35% above the HPI.

What might WEST VIEW be worth now?

WEST VIEW might now be worth an estimated £757,443.

This is based on house price inflation of 10.6%, between July 2016 and February 2025, for semi-detached houses, in the Three Rivers local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 10.6% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for WEST VIEW of £685,000 on 25th July 2016. For the value to have increased from £685,000 to £757,443 over the nine years and five months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of WEST VIEW has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the Three Rivers local authority area.
• The July 2016 sale price of £685,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of WEST VIEW has not materially changed since July 2016.
