3 ICKNIELD CLOSE 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 ICKNIELD CLOSE sales from April 2010 and May 2024 have been plotted on the graph.

For example, the April 2010 sale was for 20% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 20% below the HPI over time, until the May 2024 sale, where it falls to 21% below the HPI.
