5 OAK VIEW Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Watford local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 5 OAK VIEW sales from November 2005 and March 2011 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 2005 sale was for 45% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 45% above the HPI over time, until the March 2011 sale, where it falls to 42% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 42% above the HPI.
