34 LEYCROFT WAY Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the St Albans local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 34 LEYCROFT WAY sales from August 1997 and August 2015 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 1997 sale was for 13% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 13% above the HPI over time, until the August 2015 sale, where it falls to roughly the same level as the HPI. The line then continues to track in line with the HPI.
