The below graph shows the average detached house price in the North Hertfordshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 62 DOWNLANDS sales between April 1998 and November 2020 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 June 2005 sale was for 14% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 14% above the HPI over time, until the November 2020 sale, where it falls to 10% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 10% above the HPI.
