The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Welwyn Hatfield local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 31 NEW ROAD sales between July 1997 and October 2012 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 February 2004 sale was for 68% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 68% above the HPI over time, until the October 2012 sale, where it falls to 58% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 58% above the HPI.
