42 FOXCROFT 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 42 FOXCROFT sales between December 1997 and November 2010 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 June 2002 sale was for 33% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 33% below the HPI over time, until the November 2010 sale, where it rises to 31% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 31% above the HPI.
