2 LYTTON GARDENS 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 two 2 LYTTON GARDENS sales from July 2000 and October 2014 have been plotted on the graph.

For example, the July 2000 sale was for 26% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 26% below the HPI over time, until the October 2014 sale, where it rises to 23% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 23% below the HPI.
