SKERRIES Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Dacorum local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two SKERRIES sales from June 2014 and September 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 June 2014 sale was for 28% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 28% above the HPI over time, until the September 2023 sale, where it rises to 38% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 38% above the HPI.
