The below graph shows the average detached house price in the St Albans local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 42 BLOOMFIELD ROAD sales from October 2009 and February 2018 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 2009 sale was for 58% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 58% above the HPI over time, until the February 2018 sale, where it falls to 29% above the HPI.
