2 ANCASTER CLOSE 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 two 2 ANCASTER CLOSE sales from January 2017 and June 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 January 2017 sale was for 127% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 127% above the HPI over time, until the June 2018 sale, where it falls to 17% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 17% above the HPI.
