2 HURST CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Welwyn Hatfield local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four 2 HURST CLOSE sales between May 2000 and April 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 October 2016 sale was for 43% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 43% below the HPI over time, until the April 2022 sale, where it falls to 46% below the HPI.
