11 PENMAN CLOSE 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 four 11 PENMAN CLOSE sales between September 1998 and July 2013 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 August 2003 sale was for 20% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 20% below the HPI over time, until the July 2013 sale, where it falls to 39% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 39% below the HPI.
