53A MELBOURN ROAD Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the North Hertfordshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The five 53A MELBOURN ROAD sales between December 1998 and January 2018 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 April 2008 sale was for 3% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 3% below the HPI over time, until the January 2018 sale, where it rises to 2% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 2% above the HPI.
