3 WEST HILL 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 two 3 WEST HILL sales from November 1999 and October 2004 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 1999 sale roughly matched the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks roughly in line with the HPI over time, until the October 2004 sale, where it rises to 1% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 1% above the HPI.
