The below graph shows the average detached house price in the St Albans local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 164 THE RIDGEWAY sales from July 2002 and June 2012 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 July 2002 sale was for 19% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 19% below the HPI over time, until the June 2012 sale, where it rises to 13% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 13% below the HPI.
