27 COWPER ROAD 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 27 COWPER ROAD sales from August 1997 and October 2000 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 1997 sale was for 13% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 13% above the HPI over time, until the October 2000 sale, where it falls to 2% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 2% below the HPI.
