50 CROSS WAY 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 two 50 CROSS WAY sales from June 2019 and February 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 June 2019 sale was for 1% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 1% below the HPI over time, until the February 2021 sale, where it rises to 32% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 32% above the HPI.
