14 HOUSEFIELD 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 14 HOUSEFIELD WAY sales from November 1999 and February 2003 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 November 1999 sale was for 10% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 10% below the HPI over time, until the February 2003 sale, where it falls to 20% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 20% below the HPI.
