The below graph shows the average detached house price in the St Albans local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 57 LEYCROFT WAY sales from April 2009 and January 2023 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 2009 sale was for 42% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 42% below the HPI over time, until the January 2023 sale, where it rises to 19% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 19% above the HPI.
