The below graph shows the average detached house price in the East Hertfordshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 16 KINGSMEAD sales between June 1997 and October 2019 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 2001 sale was for 13% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 13% below the HPI over time, until the October 2019 sale, where it rises to 11% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 11% above the HPI.
