The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Welwyn Hatfield local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 42A LONDON ROAD sales from March 1995 and May 2012 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 March 1995 sale was for 18% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 18% below the HPI over time, until the May 2012 sale, where it rises to 8% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 8% above the HPI.
