The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Watford local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 15 GWENT CLOSE sales between October 1995 and December 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 November 1999 sale was for 11% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 11% below the HPI over time, until the December 2015 sale, where it rises to 4% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 4% below the HPI.
