2 FOREFIELD 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 2 FOREFIELD sales between October 1999 and June 2011 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 July 2004 sale was for 29% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 29% below the HPI over time, until the June 2011 sale, where it rises to 11% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 11% below the HPI.
