3 BOWERS WAY 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 3 BOWERS WAY sales from June 2000 and April 2016 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 June 2000 sale was for 67% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 67% above the HPI over time, until the April 2016 sale, where it falls to 49% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 49% above the HPI.
