68 GROVE ROAD Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the St Albans local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 68 GROVE ROAD sales from January 2011 and October 2015 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 2011 sale was for 29% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 29% below the HPI over time, until the October 2015 sale, which was also at 29% below the HPI.
