3 WAIN CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Welwyn Hatfield local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 3 WAIN CLOSE sales from March 1996 and December 2014 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 1996 sale was for 11% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 11% above the HPI over time, until the December 2014 sale, where it rises to 18% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 18% above the HPI.
