The below graph shows the average detached house price in the North Hertfordshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 38 ECHO HILL sales from May 2005 and October 2019 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 May 2005 sale was for 13% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 13% below the HPI over time, until the October 2019 sale, where it falls to 24% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 24% below the HPI.
