17 CAPE ROAD 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 three 17 CAPE ROAD sales between February 2001 and July 2022 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 2007 sale was for 33% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 33% below the HPI over time, until the July 2022 sale, where it rises to 28% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 28% below the HPI.
