4 PLAITFORD CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Three Rivers local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 4 PLAITFORD CLOSE sales from February 1997 and December 2020 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 February 1997 sale was for 29% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 29% below the HPI over time, until the December 2020 sale, where it falls to 30% below the HPI.
