13 TOPSTREET WAY 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 TOPSTREET WAY sales from May 2004 and July 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 May 2004 sale was for 118% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 118% above the HPI over time, until the July 2015 sale, where it rises to 135% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 135% above the HPI.
