The below graph shows the average detached house price in the St Albans local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 24 HIGH ASH ROAD sales from February 2002 and December 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 February 2002 sale was for 17% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 17% below the HPI over time, until the December 2016 sale, where it falls to 23% below the HPI.
