The below graph shows the average detached house price in the St Albans local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four 30 RIDGEWOOD DRIVE sales between August 1999 and November 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 2007 sale was for 45% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 45% above the HPI over time, until the November 2010 sale, where it falls to 44% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 44% above the HPI.
