40 BURY LANE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the East Hertfordshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 40 BURY LANE sales from March 2012 and April 2021 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 March 2012 sale was for 39% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 39% below the HPI over time, until the April 2021 sale, where it rises to 16% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 16% above the HPI.
