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 MARSHALS DRIVE sales from October 2022 and November 2024 have been plotted on the graph.

For example, the October 2022 sale was for 65% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 65% above the HPI over time, until the November 2024 sale, where it falls to 42% above the HPI.
