16 OX LANE 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 16 OX LANE sales from February 1998 and September 2020 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 February 1998 sale was for 13% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 13% above the HPI over time, until the September 2020 sale, where it rises to 30% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 30% above the HPI.
