49B HIGH STREET 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 49B HIGH STREET sales between January 2003 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 June 2004 sale was for 72% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 72% above the HPI over time, until the May 2012 sale, where it falls to 68% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 68% above the HPI.
