28 CHURCH CROFT 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 CHURCH CROFT sales between September 2000 and December 2009 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 May 2002 sale was for 37% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 37% below the HPI over time, until the December 2009 sale, where it rises to 27% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 27% below the HPI.

What might 28 CHURCH CROFT be worth now?
