26 BIRCH GROVE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Welwyn Hatfield local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 26 BIRCH GROVE sales between June 1997 and July 2012 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 August 2007 sale was for 12% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 12% above the HPI over time, until the July 2012 sale, where it falls to 2% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 2% above the HPI.
