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 MEADWAY sales from May 2014 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 May 2014 sale was for 32% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 32% above the HPI over time, until the July 2021 sale, where it rises to 36% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 36% above the HPI.
