How this area has changed

Typical prices for flats, now and in years gone by. The twelve months to August 2026 against the same twelve months back then.

Area Now 5 years ago10 years ago15 years ago20 years ago
Longspring – Not enough sales Not enough sales Not enough sales Not enough sales
Postcode sector WD24 6 – £247,500 £238,500 Not enough sales £150,000
Watford £266,000 £280,000 -5% since £240,000 +11% since £170,000 +56% since £155,000 +72% since

The typical price is the middle sale of the twelve months, not the average, so one very dear or very cheap sale cannot pull it about. Standard sales only. A figure needs at least 15 sales behind it; with fewer, it says so.
