4 LION YARD Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the North Hertfordshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 4 LION YARD sales from November 1998 and December 2016 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 1998 sale was for 12% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 12% above the HPI over time, until the December 2016 sale, where it falls to 15% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 15% below the HPI.
