15 BIRCH GROVE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Welwyn Hatfield local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 15 BIRCH GROVE sales between December 1995 and July 2017 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 2006 sale was for 14% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 14% below the HPI over time, until the July 2017 sale, where it falls to 33% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 33% below the HPI.
