The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Watford local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 51 STRANGEWAYS sales from March 2003 and May 2014 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 March 2003 sale was for 37% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 37% below the HPI over time, until the May 2014 sale, where it rises to 26% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 26% below the HPI.
