6 GOSMORE LEY CLOSE 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 6 GOSMORE LEY CLOSE sales between October 2001 and November 2020 have been plotted on the graph.

For example, the April 2014 sale was for 43% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 43% above the HPI over time, until the November 2020 sale, where it rises to 55% above the HPI.
