5B 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 two 5B MOUNT PLEASANT sales from January 1999 and May 2003 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 January 1999 sale was for 69% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 69% above the HPI over time, until the May 2003 sale, where it falls to 64% above the HPI.
