22 SEAMAN CLOSE 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 four 22 SEAMAN CLOSE sales between December 1996 and August 2016 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 November 2005 sale was for 49% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 49% below the HPI over time, until the August 2016 sale, where it falls to 61% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 61% below the HPI.
