5A MOUNT PLEASANT 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 three 5A MOUNT PLEASANT sales between June 1997 and September 2024 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 August 2015 sale was for 6% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 6% below the HPI over time, until the September 2024 sale, where it rises to 24% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 24% above the HPI.
