36 WEST COMMON 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 three 36 WEST COMMON WAY sales between April 2008 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 November 2010 sale was for 341% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 341% above the HPI over time, until the August 2015 sale, where it falls to 212% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 212% above the HPI.
