4 PUDDINGSTONE DRIVE 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 four 4 PUDDINGSTONE DRIVE sales between November 2000 and January 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 September 2006 sale was for 18% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 18% below the HPI over time, until the January 2016 sale, where it falls to 25% below the HPI.
