42 THE LAWNS Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Stevenage local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 42 THE LAWNS sales between March 1996 and April 2020 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 2013 sale was for 16% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 16% below the HPI over time, until the April 2020 sale, where it falls to 19% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 19% below the HPI.
