The below graph shows the average detached house price in the St Albans local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 309 WATFORD ROAD sales between June 2003 and March 2018 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 2014 sale was for 20% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 20% below the HPI over time, until the March 2018 sale, where it rises to 16% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 16% above the HPI.
