28 BUTT FIELD VIEW 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 three 28 BUTT FIELD VIEW sales between April 2000 and March 2023 have been plotted on the graph.

For example, the August 2003 sale was for 50% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 50% below the HPI over time, until the March 2023 sale, which was also at 50% below the HPI.
