1 DONNE CLOSE 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 five 1 DONNE CLOSE sales between March 1996 and April 2024 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 March 1999 sale was for 43% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 43% below the HPI over time, until the April 2024 sale, where it falls to 46% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 46% below the HPI.
