The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Watford local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 6 THE GARDENS sales between March 2004 and July 2021 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 February 2014 sale was for 18% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 18% above the HPI over time, until the July 2021 sale, where it falls to 9% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 9% above the HPI.
