13 SHORT 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 13 SHORT LANE sales from April 1996 and May 2000 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 April 1996 sale was for 54% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 54% below the HPI over time, until the May 2000 sale, where it rises to 49% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 49% below the HPI.
