3 EASTCOTE DRIVE 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 3 EASTCOTE DRIVE sales between January 2000 and October 2010 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 2008 sale was for 51% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 51% below the HPI over time, until the October 2010 sale, where it rises to 46% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 46% below the HPI.
