45 WEST HILL 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 three 45 WEST HILL sales between June 1999 and October 2013 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 September 2002 sale was for 3% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 3% above the HPI over time, until the October 2013 sale, which was also at 3% above the HPI.
