72 HIGHOVER WAY 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 72 HIGHOVER WAY sales from November 2001 and August 2014 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 2001 sale was for 30% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 30% below the HPI over time, until the August 2014 sale, where it falls to 40% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 40% below the HPI.
