5 HIGHBURY ROAD 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 three 5 HIGHBURY ROAD sales between September 1995 and November 2003 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 February 1997 sale was for 149% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 149% above the HPI over time, until the November 2003 sale, where it falls to 129% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 129% above the HPI.
