The below graph shows the average detached house price in the St Albans local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The five 3 HOUSEFIELD WAY sales between December 1998 and July 2024 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 March 2021 sale was for 32% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 32% below the HPI over time, until the July 2024 sale, where it rises to 29% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 29% below the HPI.
