40 SHERWOOD AVENUE 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 three 40 SHERWOOD AVENUE sales between September 2000 and February 2017 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 October 2002 sale was for 33% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 33% below the HPI over time, until the February 2017 sale, where it rises to 14% below the HPI.
