5 VER ROAD Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the St Albans local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four 5 VER ROAD sales between June 1996 and August 2021 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 2014 sale was for 21% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 21% above the HPI over time, until the August 2021 sale, where it rises to 34% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 34% above the HPI.
