The below graph shows the average detached house price in the St Albans local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 37 RIDGEWOOD DRIVE sales from December 2014 and May 2023 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 December 2014 sale was for 2% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 2% below the HPI over time, until the May 2023 sale, where it falls to 7% below the HPI.
