10 TOWNSEND LANE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the St Albans local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 10 TOWNSEND LANE sales from October 2013 and June 2015 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 October 2013 sale was for 30% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 30% above the HPI over time, until the June 2015 sale, where it rises to 49% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 49% above the HPI.
