29 LONGACRES 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 29 LONGACRES sales from December 1998 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 December 1998 sale was for 13% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 13% below the HPI over time, until the October 2000 sale, where it falls to 26% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 26% below the HPI.
