3 THE WILLOWS Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the North Hertfordshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 3 THE WILLOWS sales from July 2007 and November 2019 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 July 2007 sale was for 2% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 2% below the HPI over time, until the November 2019 sale, where it rises to 15% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 15% above the HPI.
