22 CHESTNUT DRIVE 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 22 CHESTNUT DRIVE sales from December 2000 and March 2009 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 December 2000 sale was for 48% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 48% below the HPI over time, until the March 2009 sale, where it rises to 42% below the HPI.
