118 BENSLOW LANE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the North Hertfordshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four 118 BENSLOW LANE sales between October 1998 and August 2023 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 September 2012 sale was for 1% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 1% below the HPI over time, until the August 2023 sale, where it rises to 7% above the HPI.
