24 PROSPECT LANE 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 24 PROSPECT LANE sales from December 2004 and August 2017 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 2004 sale was for 62% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 62% above the HPI over time, until the August 2017 sale, where it rises to 101% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 101% above the HPI.
