21 THE CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Hertsmere local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 21 THE CLOSE sales from May 1996 and December 1999 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 1996 sale was for 43% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 43% below the HPI over time, until the December 1999 sale, where it rises to 37% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 37% below the HPI.
