1A OVERSTONE 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 1A OVERSTONE ROAD sales between October 1996 and August 2009 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 May 2002 sale was for 11% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 11% below the HPI over time, until the August 2009 sale, where it falls to 13% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 13% below the HPI.
