The below graph shows the average detached house price in the St Albans local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 165 WATLING STREET sales from March 2014 and September 2018 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 March 2014 sale was for 3% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 3% above the HPI over time, until the September 2018 sale, where it falls to 23% below the HPI.
