44 FARTHING DRIVE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the North Hertfordshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 44 FARTHING DRIVE sales from November 2006 and August 2007 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 November 2006 sale was for 39% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 39% below the HPI over time, until the August 2007 sale, where it rises to 24% below the HPI.
