The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Dacorum local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 18 TORTOISESHELL WAY sales between June 2004 and May 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 December 2004 sale was for 26% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 26% below the HPI over time, until the May 2012 sale, where it rises to 25% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 25% below the HPI.
