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 PRINCESS DIANA DRIVE sales from June 1999 and January 2010 have been plotted on the graph.

For example, the June 1999 sale was for 22% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 22% below the HPI over time, until the January 2010 sale, where it falls to 28% below the HPI.
