The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Welwyn Hatfield local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 5 LYTTON GARDENS sales between July 2012 and October 2023 have been plotted on the graph.

For example, the August 2013 sale was for 19% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 19% below the HPI over time, until the October 2023 sale, where it falls to 21% below the HPI.
